Van der Vaart says

Spurs boss Harry Redknapp was alerted to the availability of Van der Vaart late on Tuesday afternoon and acted quickly to thrash out personal terms with the Real Madrid man. The midfielder has spoken of his delight at agreeing a deal worth €11 million over four years and is ready to test himself in the Premier League.

"Four years at Spurs, for €11 million, I can hardly believe it myself," Van der Vaart told De Telegraaf. "It's a pity I cannot now play against Ajax in the Champions League but I will get to face FC Twente."

The speed of a deal came as a surprise to the player, who said: "The interest from Tottenham came very quick and I did not have much time to think. But I want to play football again and if possible every week, with a beautiful club. I 'm totally happy."

Van der Vaart has played in Netherlands, Germany and Spain and is now looking forward to a new chapter in his career.
"I am excited about playing in England. Whether it suits my style remains to be seen, but I think a good footballer can adapt and I am very proud of this transfer."
