Christian Eriksen’s departure to Inter Milan means that Erik Lamela is the only remaining member of Tottenham’s ‘Magnificent Seven’.

Eriksen and Lamela were two of the seven players Spurs brought to the club under Andre Villas-Boas in the summer of 2013 using the money generated from Gareth Bale’s move to Real Madrid.

Here, the PA news agency takes a look at what has happened to those players.

Roberto Soldado

Etienne Capoue

Capoue was bought from Toulouse for £9million but three months later Villas-Boas had been sacked and interim boss Tim Sherwood did not take to him. He found game time just as hard to find in Pochettino’s first season in charge and he was sold to Watford for just under £6million in the summer of 2015. He made 36 appearances and scored two goals and is still with the Hornets now. Verdict: Failure
