Tottenham winger Lennon loaned to Everton

Xinhua, February 3, 2015 Adjust font size:

Tottenham Hotspurs winger Aaron Lennon had been loaned to Everton until the end of the season just before the transfer window closed on Monday.

Lennon had started just three Premier League matches since Mauricio Pochettino took over as Tottenham manager last year and the England international has been allowed to leave White Hart Lane to revive his career.

The 27-year-old played 267 times for Spurs after arriving from Leeds for 1 million pounds (1.5 million dollars) in 2005 and won the League Cup in 2008.

Everton boss Roberto Martinez beat Stoke and Hull to Lennon's signature and he hopes the winger, who won the last of his 21 England caps two years ago, will bring a much-needed spark to his side, who are 12th in the league after a disappointing campaign to date. Endi
