The young midfielder was sent on a season-long loan to the Premier League outfit in August last year, with Spurs reserving the right to buy the player at the end of the season. The North London side has decided to buy the full
rights of the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 B star earlier than expected, in order to ward off interest from other clubs.

Southampton manager, Nigel Adkins, is delighted to have Falque on-board, and believes that he can play a big role in their qualification to the Premier League.
While talking to the reporters, Adkins said,
"Tottenham rate him highly and have loaned him out to ourselves where he will become another addition to the players that we've got to give us that opportunity to get back into the Premier League. I'm sure he'll settle in fine."
The attacking midfielder also expressed his delight after joining the Saints, hoping to help the team return to top flight next season. The 21-year-old believes that the move will help him grow as a player.
"I'm very happy to be here at Southampton, and I am looking forward to training with my new teammates who have proved this season that they are very talented. I hope that I can help the team to great things this season." he said.
