He played for Southampton as a junior player from 2005 – 2006, and then was bumped up to Senior League play in 2006, when he was just 16 years old. His first professional year was widely regarded as very successful, and he won the Football League Young Player of the Year Award. He then moved on to play for Tottenham Hotspur. He struggled with injuries during his first few years with the team, but has played exceptional football since 2010. He transferred to Real Madrid in September 2013 for a record 85.3 million GBP, the largest amount paid for a football player ever.
