Tottenham's Erik Lamela hints at Roberto Soldado exit with goodbye tweet
Erik Lamela provided the clearest indication that Roberto Soldado's time at White Hart Lane is over by saying goodbye to the Tottenham striker on social media.
The Argentine quickly deleted the message. The club hasn't made any official announcement about Soldado.
Lamela's tweet was posted after photos of Soldado at Gatwick Airport emerged on social media, with the 30-year-old striker reportedly close to joining La Liga side Villarreal, according to Sky Sports.
Soldado has been an utter disappointment for Spurs since his arrival in 2013, when Tottenham brought him and six new players into the team during a £110-million spending spree following the sale of Gareth Bale.
The Spanish striker has only managed to score seven goals in the Premier League, and just 16 goals overall.
