Arnaut Danjuma has claimed he wants to be a "beacon of light for the fans" following his loan move to Tottenham from Villarreal. Looking on course to join Everton on a deal until the end of the campaign before a dramatic U-turn, the Netherlands international made an instant impact on his Spurs debut with a goal off the bench in their 3-0 win over Preston North End in the fourth round of the FA Cup.
Despite making the best possible start to life in north London, Danjuma will have to wait for his debut at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as he was an unused substitute in Sunday's 1-0 win over Man City. Clearly pleased with the start he made away at Preston as he scored on his debut, just as fellow Netherlands international Steven Bergwijn did against Man City in 2020, the attacker has stated he is "hungry for more" and that his goal "sets the tone" for what he want to achieve with his new club.
"See, it's the Dutchness. The Dutch always score on their debuts," joked the January addition when speaking about his debut goal to the club's official matchday programme for the Man City match. "It's the only thing you're aiming for when you play your first match. You always visualise it. Any minute that you get as a striker, the only thing you're aiming at is really goals, goals, goals. So, for me, it was the perfect start, the perfect debut.
