It’s exciting times for All Whites' captain Ryan Nelsen as he gets set to sign a new contract with English Premier League high-flyers Tottenham Hotspur.

But with the new, Nelsen has to say goodbye to a life with Blackburn Rovers that he has known for the past seven years.

Nelsen knows his limitations, but with the head down and bum up type of attitude that the Kiwi is well known for, challenges are something he relishes.

Welcome to Tottenham Hotspur Football Club, Ryan.

I spent a year living in NZ and loved every minute, a truly incredible country, so it's great to have a Kiwi legend sign for Spurs. He was immense at the World Cup, and I'm sure Nelsen will come in and do the job when he gets an opportunity. COYS!
