Benoit Assou-Ekotto: 'Eden Hazard would fit in at Tottenham'

Benoit Assou-Ekotto believes that Eden Hazard possesses the necessary quality to be a Tottenham Hotspur player.

The young Belgian international has been continually linked with a move to White Hart Lane if he leaves French champions Lille in the summer.

Spurs full-back Assou-Ekotto has no doubts over Hazard's ability to adapt to life with the North London club.

"He can succeed. He has the talent to," Assou-Ekotto told French radio station RMC.

"If he can help us, why not? He is speaking French, it will be easier to communicate."

Hazard has also been linked with Manchester United, Manchester City, Real Madrid and Inter Milan.
