Sandro left White Hart Lane to join QPR on transfer deadline day after four years with Tottenham, the last of those alongside Lamela.

While Lamela didn't say how the pair spent their evening together in South West London, Richmond is well-known as one of London's most affluent suburbs.

The South American pair could have used their time away from the pitch to enjoy one of the town's two theatres, many pubs and restaurants, or even taken the short trip to Richmond Park, famous for being the second largest park in the capital, and home to hundreds of deer.
