Destiny Udogie has told Tottenham fans what they can expect from him next season after becoming the club's seventh summer signing.

The wing-back has joined from Udinese in a deal worth around £20million, signing a five-year deal of which the first season will be spent back at the Serie A club on loan.

Udogie was been dubbed an ideal Antonio Conte signing after proving a potent threat from defence, scoring five times for Udinese last season.

"It's a big honour for me to be here, with this big team, a big club with a big history,” he told the club’s in-house medal.

"I can attack and defend. I like to show my quality to attack one versus one, dribble... It's an honour to play under a big coach like Antonio Conte. He knows football very well and I'm going to grow a lot.

"I think the Premier League is the biggest league in the world, the most difficult and I like challenges. I'm excited to start and, for me, to play for a big team like Tottenham is a big dream come true.

"I want to grow as much as I can [back at Udinese], to understand the game a little bit more and obviously play my best season in Serie A."
