In the summer of 2013, the transfer window rocked as Gareth transferred from Tottenham to Real Madrid in a deal worth around \u00a386 million.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the aftermath, Spurs went on a spending spree bringing in\nseven players, but only one remains at the club \u2013 Erik Lamela. So, where are\nthe other six today?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Christian Eriksen<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Without a doubt, Eriksen was the biggest success brought\ninto Tottenham over that window and arguably the best signing the club have made\nover the last ten years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over 300 appearances followed for Spurs including 51 Premier\nLeague goals with Eriksen often playing the lead role from midfield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With his contract up at Tottenham this summer, Eriksen was\nsold to Inter Milan this transfer window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roberto Soldado<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its thanks to Roberto Soldado that Harry Kane got his big break\nat Spurs. Brought in for \u00a326 million from Valencia after scoring 59 goals in 101\nLa Liga games, Soldado was supposed to take the Premier League by storm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It didn\u2019t work out that way and just seven Premier League\ngoals in 52 appearances led to Tottenham selling him to Villarreal two years\nlater. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, Soldado is plying his trade at Granada. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Etienne Capoue<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Defensive midfielder Etienne Capoue was brought in from\nToulouse after impressing at the French outfit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The French international struggled to make an impact at\nWhite Hart Lane and left the club for Watford in 2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Things improved for Capoue though, who was voted Watford\u2019s\nplayer of the season for the 2018\/19 campaign and is a regular at Vicarage Road\nstill today.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vlad Chiriches<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

During his debut season at Spurs, Vlad Chiriches played exemplary\nalthough as a backup. However, when Mauricio Pochettino took over as boss, the\nRomanian\u2019s time was up as he barely got a look in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, the 30-year-old is on loan at Serie A outfit Sassuolo\nfrom his parent club Napoli. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paulinho<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Much was expected of Paulinho when he came to the club from\nBrazilian giants Corinthians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He showed flashes of brilliance and often calamity errors\nleaving Spurs fans frustrated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He left Tottenham for Chinese outfit Guangzhou Evergrande\nbefore Barcelona swooped in to take him for a season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He performed well scoring 9 goals in 34 La Liga appearances\nbefore heading back to Guangzhou which is where he is today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nacer Chadli<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Attacking midfielder Nacer Chadli was by no means a flop but\nhe hardly set the world alight either after arriving from FC Twente.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

88 games and 15 goals in the Premier League is not a bad\nreturn but the Belgian soon found himself at West Bromwich Albion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An impressive season with the Baggies followed before moving\nto Monaco. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, the 30-year-old is currently on loan at Anderlecht.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
