Corinthians midfielder Paulinho admits that he is happy to be compared to Frank Lampard, as he prepares to seal a move to Tottenham Hotspur.

Corinthians midfielder Paulinho has insisted that he is comfortable with being compared to Chelsea player Frank Lampard.

Paulinho has confirmed that he will move to Tottenham Hotspur in the near future, and he has admitted that he intends to follow in the footsteps of the England midfielder

The 24-year-old told the Daily Star: "This comparison is a responsibility that I will take. I will not run away from it.

"Lampard is a great player, not only for Chelsea but in world football. I intend to follow in his footsteps as he is a very professional guy. David Luiz always speaks of him on international duty.

"I've always looked at what Lampard does and to me he is a huge phenomenon. The way he hits the ball, what positions he takes up, he really is incredible."

The Brazil international has scored 20 goals in 86 league appearances for Corinthians.
