Former Tottenham defender Ledley King believes the club can still achieve success and a top-four finish despite the recent sale of Gareth Bale to Real Madrid.

Bale was sold to the La Liga side for a world record transfer fee of £85.3m, but Spurs have spent almost £105m this summer on seven new players.

King, who retired in July 2012, says the new signings need time to get used to the demands of the Premier League, but thinks Spurs are "a lot better" now they have a stronger squad.
