Bassong joined Wolves on loan from Spurs for the rest of the season just minutes before the transfer window closed on Tuesday evening.

Sebastien Bassong: "I've been chatting with the manager and chairman at Tottenham to see how things stood and whether I would be coming out on loan. I think it is a very good move for me.

"There are some very good players at Tottenham and they are having a fantastic season, but I just want to try and play football and I am hoping this will be a good place for me to do that.

"Of course, it's a different challenge to Spurs, the different end of the table, but I know that there is a challenge ahead and I wanted to be a part of it.

"I am sure there is enough quality in the dressing room to stay up. You only stay in the Premier League if you deserve to and, if we do everything properly, then I think we will do it."
