Former Tottenham defender Serge Aurier has joined LaLiga side Villarreal on a deal until the end of the season.

The 28-year old full back is a free agent after cancelling his contract with Tottenham by mutual consent on transfer deadline day in August.

But the Ivorian has now found himself another club in the form of the Europa League holders, and has the option of two further years at the Spanish side written into his contract.
