Lucas Moura admits he endured a frustrating end to his time at Paris Saint-Germain, while the weather in England is taking some getting used to at Tottenham.
The Brazil international was among those on the move during the January transfer window, with Spurs acquiring his services for £25 million.
That deal brought a five-year stint in France to a close, with big-spending in Paris having ultimately forced the 25-year-old towards the exits amid fierce competition for players.
Lucas concedes that “something broke” as he slipped out of favour, but he remains convinced that he made the right choice in heading for England.
“I had five fantastic years in Paris, then something broke and the last seven months have been difficult,” he told Gazzetta dello Sport.
“This is not the time to talk about certain things, I just want to say I'm happy with the choice I made.
“Spurs are a club building for the future. There are international players like [Harry] Kane, [Christian] Eriksen, [Dele] Alli and Son [Heung-min].
“There is a young, knowledgeable and ambitious coach, and a club with state-of-the-art facilities.”
The only issue for Lucas in London is the weather, with a man more accustomed to warmer climes having got a first taste of football in the snow during a recent FA Cup clash with Newport.
He added: “Everything is going well, the only problem is the weather!
“I had never played in the snow like I did against Newport, but I will adapt to that too.”
