Tottenham Hotspur have completed the signing of right back Emerson Royal on a five-year contract from Barcelona, the clubs said on Tuesday.

Barca said Spurs had paid a fee of 25 million euros ($29.51 million) for the 22-year-old Brazil international. Emerson moved to LaLiga in June 2019 from Atletico Miniero in the Brazilian top tier, initially joining Real Betis on loan before coming back to Barcelona at the end of last season.
