Giovani Lo Celso became our latest player to reach 100 appearances for the Club.
Gio (Legacy Number 833), who joined us on an initial loan deal from Real Betis in the summer of 2019 which became permanent in January 2020, brought up his century when he came on as a second-half substitute in our 2-1 victory over Luton Town at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

After Issa Kabore's own goal had put us back on level terms six minutes after the break, the Argentina international entered the fray in the 68th minute as we pushed for a winner and came millimetres away from an assist 10 minutes later when Brennan Johnson's shot was somehow cleared off the line before Heung-Min Son's 160th Spurs strike clinched the win four minutes from time.
Taking to social media after reaching the milestone against the Hatters, our number 18, who has two goals and two assists in his 14 league appearance this term, has said there is 'more to come' after speaking of his pride to bring up this landmark and thanking fans for supporting him during his time here:
"Happy to get the 3 points and very proud to make my 100th appearance for this brilliant club @spursofficial 💙 As always, thanks to all our fans for your support. More to come 🙌🏼 COYS"

Now 27, the midfielder made his debut off the bench in our 2-2 draw with Manchester City in the Premier League on 17 August 2019. He then marked his full debut with his first goal for the Club in a 4-0 win at Red Star in the UEFA Champions League group stage that November. Into his fourth full campaign at the Club, having spent two seasons on loan at Spanish side Villarreal in La Liga between 2022-23, the Argentine has registered 10 goals and eight assists in Lilywhite.
Of our current squad, he joined Heung-Min Son (399), Ben Davies (329), Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg (176) and Oliver Skipp (102) in our 100-club.
