Tottenham have announced the surprise signing of Japan international Mana Iwabuchi from north London rivals Arsenal.
The 29-year-old attacker, who has 37 goals in 85 caps for Japan, had been expected to leave the Gunners this month after over 18 months at the club.
And her move has now been confirmed as she crosses the north London divide to join rivals Tottenham on loan.
It is the second statement signing of the month from Spurs, who have also brought in Bethany England in a record move and the striker had an instant impact, scoring on her debut for the club in the weekend defeat to Aston Villa.
