Spurs fans were delighted to see some old footage of reported transfer target Willian Jose scoring four goals in a Europa League game back in 2017.
His side Real Sociedad beat Macedonian minnows Vadar 6-0 in their Europa League clash, with the Brazilian striker notching four times in the process. Spurs have been heavily linked with the 28-year-old in the last 24 hours and after the video was posted online it seems that fans are keen on signing the La Liga striker.
Spurs are in desperate need of a striker during this window following the long-term injury suffered by Harry Kane earlier this month, with both Lucas Moura and Heung-Min Son having filled in there in recent weeks. The Real Sociedad man is currently valued at £27 million by Transfermarkt but recent reports have suggested that he could be available for just £18 million which could perhaps see him make the move to North London this month.

These Spurs fans clearly enjoyed Willian Jose’s goals and felt that it was perfect preparation for next season, with many fans suggesting that they may end up playing in the Europa League.
What do we think?
Willian Jose has been in decent form so far this season for Sociedad; scoring eight goals in 20 appearances and he could prove to be the ideal stand-in for Kane during his injury if Spurs do manage to complete a move for him this month.
