West Ham United completed the signing of South American striker Taty Castellanos from Lazio on Monday and he’s raring to go against Tottenham next week.

Castellanos made his debut for West Ham the day after joining but unfortunately, he couldn’t help prevent the defeat to Nottingham Forest at the London Stadium.

West Ham paid around £26 million to sign Castellanos and the Hammers fans will be hoping that the Argentine will be able to fire their side back into a position of safety.

Nuno Espirito Santo‘s side are in real trouble right now and the next Premier League game they face is a trip to Tottenham on December 17th.

What are your EXPECTATIONS for Taty Castellanos? 🇦🇷

What does he need to do to justify that £27m price-tag?

The game will be vitally important for the Hammers and Spurs, considering just how disappointing the seasons have been for both sides.

However, Castellanos is clearly approaching the game with excitement, rather than trepidation, which is obviously a very good sign.

West Ham’s Taty Castellanos cannot wait to face one Tottenham player

The South American striker has been thrown in at the deep end at West Ham.

He’s desperate to do everything he can to make a difference and fire the Hammers to Premier League safety.

For him, that will ideally start by getting one over one of his old mates next week.

Castellanos has just taken part in a quick-fire question and answer session on West Ham’s official TikTok account.

The West Ham striker was asked which player he is looking forward to facing most after his move to the Premier League.

Taty simply responded by saying: “Cuti Romero.“
