Struggles at Tottenham

Former Tottenham striker Roberto Soldado, who was once labeled a flop during his time at the club, has finally found success on the golf course. Soldado, who joined Spurs for a then-record fee of £26 million in 2013, struggled to make an impact during his two seasons at the club. He only managed to score 16 goals in 76 games and was eventually replaced by a young Harry Kane.

£16 Million Loss

Spurs took a £16 million hit when they sold Soldado to Villarreal in 2015. The Spanish striker's time at Tottenham was marked by disappointment and he was even named one of the ten worst Premier League buys of the 2013-2014 season by a newspaper.

Turning to Golf

After retiring from professional football this summer, Soldado turned his attention to golf. In just three months, he won his first golf title at the Trececasas event held at the Escorpion Golf Club in his hometown of Valencia.

Tipped for Success

Spanish media have praised Soldado's golfing skills and have even tipped him to turn professional and achieve even greater success in the sport. They have hailed his "winning gene" and believe that he has a bright future ahead of him on the golf course.

A Career of 291 Goals

Soldado's retirement from football marks the end of a career that saw him score a total of 291 goals in 745 games for both club and country. Despite his struggles at Tottenham, the Spanish striker has left a lasting impact on the game.
