Benjamin Stambouli joins PSG
Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Benjamin Stambouli has sealed a move back to Ligue 1 after just one season in the Premier League.
The talented midfielder joined Spurs from Montpellier last summer, but struggled to adapt to the pace of the game.
Sky Sports News cites that the 24-year-old has joined French champions Paris Saint-Germain on a five-year deal for a reported fee of around £6m.
"I am delighted and very proud to become a member of the Paris Saint-Germain family," he told reporters.
"I wasn't necessarily planning to leave the Premier League after one year but when a club with the dimension of Paris Saint-Germain calls you, it makes your choice a lot easier!”
Premier League side Watford were also keen interested in the midfield enforcer.
