Andre Villas-Boas admits that he is delighted to have been appointed the new manager of Tottenham Hotspur on a three-year deal.

Andre Villas-Boas has spoken of his delight at being named the manager of Tottenham Hotspur.

The Portuguese coach was appointed as Harry Redknapp's successor earlier today following a number of conversations with the White Hart Lane board.

Looking to the future, the former Chelsea boss believes that he has the players at his disposal to be successful in all competitions.

"Tottenham Hotspur are a great club with a strong tradition and fantastic support, both at home and throughout the world. I feel privileged to become coach," he told the club's official website.

"This is one of the most exciting coaching positions in the Premier League. I have had several discussions with the chairman and the board and I share their vision for the future progress of the club.

"This is a squad any coach would love to work with and together I believe we can bring success in the seasons ahead."

The 34-year-old has signed a three-year deal with the club.
