SHOCK AND AUR

Serge Aurier tells ‘little a**hole’ Erik Lamela he will miss him after Tottenham star completes Sevilla transfer

SERGE AURIER paid tribute to Erik Lamela following his move from Tottenham to Sevilla - by branding him a ‘little a**hole’.

Lamela, 29, has moved to Spain as part of a deal taking Bryan Gil to Spurs.

Daniel Levy offered Sevilla £22million plus the Argentine winger in exchange for their 20-year-old prodigy.

And the deal was confirmed by both clubs on Monday.

The transfer brings an end to Lamela’s eight-year spell in London.

And Tottenham right-back Aurier bid farewell in a hilarious manner by calling Lamela a ‘little a**hole’.

Aurier posted an Instagram Story of Lamela posing in Sevilla’s changing room.

And an accompanying message read: “I will really miss you little a**hole.

“I love you my brother. I wish you the best for you and your family.

“I will not be able to take your money to the Uno, but you will always be in my heart hermano, good luck.”

I will really miss you little a**hole

Lamela joined Spurs from Roma in 2013 for £26m as part of the ‘Magnificent Seven’ who replaced Gareth Bale following his £89m Real Madrid switch.

Lamela scored 37 goals in 255 games under Andre Villas-Boas, Tim Sherwood, Mauricio Pochettino, Jose Mourinho and Ryan Mason.

However, with new boss Nuno Espirito Santo at the helm, Spurs have opted to go in a different direction.

Young winger Gil has signed a five-year deal keeping him at the club until 2026.

He took LaLiga by storm last season while on loan at Eibar, scoring four goals and providing three assists.
