Tottenham Hotspur defender Michael Dawson has completed his move to Hull City on Tuesday.

A statement on Tottenham’s official website read, ” We have reached agreement with Hull City for the permanent transfer of Michael Dawson.”

The North London club’s chairman Daniel Levy has heaped praise on the England international’s contribution to Tottenham, both on and off the field.

“Michael has been an outstanding Club representative both on and off the field throughout the nine-and-a-half years he has served our football club,” Levy said.

“He has always given everything for the Spurs shirt – just one of the reasons he is so deservedly popular throughout the Club with teammates, staff and fans alike.”

“His contribution cannot be under-estimated. He has been a fantastic individual and personality and a great influence on our younger players, for whom he always found time. We wish him the best of luck in the next chapter of his career,” he added.
