If reports in Metro are to be believed, Tottenham brought their new signing Roberto Soldado to the club in London on a Ryanair flight, a British low-cost airline. The Spaniard had cost chairman Daniel Levy £26m.

With that signing he also became Tottenham’s most expensive buy ever. Mostly, all big name footballers travel in first class or even a business class, but here was Spur’s most valuable asset turning up in a budget airline to the amusement of everyone.

The 28-year-old arrived in London for a medical before signing a deal at White Hart Lane. Surely, Soldado will be hoping for a better treatment when Spurs participate in Europa League later this month.

Meanwhile former Spur’s striker Mido joked that he got a better treatment from Levy on Twitter:
