Tottenham: Fraser Forster signs two-year deal after free transfer from Southampton

Tottenham have confirmed the signing of England goalkeeper Fraser Forster on a free transfer.

He made 19 Premier League appearances last season and will replace Pierluigi Gollini as back-up to regular starter Hugo Lloris at Spurs.

Forster, who has six England caps, made 162 appearances for Saints after a move from Celtic for about £10m in 2014.

Although Forster's last international appearance was in 2016, he returned to the squad this March after Sam Johnstone and Aaron Ramsdale withdrew.

A product of the Newcastle academy, Forster had loan spells with Stockport County, Bristol Rovers, Norwich City and Celtic before making a permanent move to Parkhead in 2012.
