Spurs flop Paulinho completes £15m move to China

Daniel Levy has worked his magic again, with Tottenham inexplicably making most of their money back on Brazilian misfit Paulinho.

The midfielder, who played just 15 league games last season, has been snapped up by Chinese giants Guangzhou Evergrande for an eye-watering eight-figure fee.

Paulinho joined Spurs after an impressive showing at the 2013 Confederations Cup, but has failed to make an impact in England.

The London club have made two new signings so far this window, bringing in defenders Kevin Wimmer and Kieran Trippier.
