Paulinho wants to be Tottenham’s version of Frank Lampard

GOAL-GETTER ... Paulinho

AULINHO wants to be Tottenham’s version of Frank Lampard.

The Brazilian, set to join Spurs from Corinthians for £17million, has been compared to Chelsea’s all-time top scorer.

And he wants to deliver goals like Lamps when he arrives at White Hart Lane.

Paulinho, 24, said: “This comparison is a responsibility I will take, I will not run away from it.

“Lampard is a great player not only for Chelsea but world football.

“I intend to follow in his footsteps as he is a very professional guy. David Luiz always speaks of him on international duty.

“I’ve always looked at what Lampard does and, to me, he is a phenomenon — the way he hits the ball, what positions he takes up. He really is incredible.”
