Corey Kluber and Yan Gomes of the Cleveland Indians were two stars the Tottenham side met with during the trip to America.
Kluber also stated that he is a Spurs fan and the pair interacted with Lucas Moura and Ben Davies.
“We’re both big fans and any time we get to interact with the guys it’s a great honour.”

Baseball is an American sport through and through but there was something unique about Yan as he is the first ever Brazil-born MLB player.
Gomes was open enough to admit that people know Brazilians for their football and not baseball but it was a fun experience for the pair.
While we did not have some of our biggest stars available for the US tour, this still was a great experience for all. A number of fans also took to Twitter, however, and they were not pleased with what we have done so far in the transfer window.
The lack of signings was a concern for all and here are some of the reactions from Tottenham fans.

Appalling transfer window. Absolutely abhorrent. All this progress made over the last few years is in risk of not fulfilling its potential. We could be the modern day 1990’s Newcastle

Spurs fans will not be interested in any of that unless there is a announcement of a signing or an improved contract from a certain player. So Frustrating. Only 6 days left not 6 weeks.

How Potches body language has changed over the past weeks. Completely resigned to the fact he’s been stitched up by Levy, who is full of false promises. We won’t improve the squad cause we not sold anyone, and Levy was banking on a big sponsor for new stadium. no top 4 this year
