Lucas Moura has clinched silverware just four months after leaving Tottenham in favour of a return to his home nation Brazil.<\/p>\n
The 31-year-old left Tottenham as a free agent in the summer following five-and-a-half years at the club during which time he helped them reach a Champions League final.<\/p>\n
Moura is best remembered by Spurs supporters for his semi-final heroics when he scored a stunning hat-trick against Ajax in that year’s competition.<\/p>\n
Now he has helped guide Sao Paulo to the Brazilian Cup 11-years after initially leaving his boyhood team that he first made his debut at in 2010.<\/p>\n
Moura started both matches against Flamengo in the two-legged cup final where he starred in an experienced team also featuring former Real Madrid midfielder James Rodriguez amongst their ranks.<\/p>\n

He previously enjoyed success winning the\u00a0Copa Sudamericana during his first spell in Sao Paulo and was influential in helping them beat Flamengo 2-1 on aggregate across both matches.<\/p>\n
Posting a picture of himself holding the impressively designed Brazilian Cup, Moura captioned his latest accomplishment: ‘HEEEEEEEEEE CHAMP!! One more promise of GOD being fulfilled in my life. Thank you Lord!’.<\/p>\n

The title was Moura’s 20th piece of club silverware during what has been a stellar career of achievement, however, he failed to win anything during his time at Tottenham.<\/p>\n
Supporters sought to point this out on social media where they expectedly eluded to another the situation of another Tottenham star leaving the club in search of major honours.<\/p>\n
Harry Kane similarly left the club to seal a \u00a3100m switch to reigning German champions Bayern Munich, while, other big names such as Kyle Walker have previously go on to succeed away from Tottenham.<\/p>\n
However, Lucas could be set to leave Sao Paulo not long after joining with his existing deal expiring at the start of next year and a move to America reportedly being considered.<\/p>\n
