Gunter impressed massively in his rare appearances for Spurs in 2007/08. His versatility could prove useful for Spurs
Like compatriot and fellow Spurs defender Gareth Bale, success came early for Gunter.
The Newport-born full-back, who can play both on the left and the right side of defence, made his debut for Cardiff in August 2006 against Barnet, having just turned 17.
A string of mature performances for the Bluebirds led to his senior international call-up a year later and, in making his debut, he became the youngest ever Cardiff player to represent Wales.
This precocity alerted a number of Premier League clubs, including Everton, who had a bid for the defender turned down, before Tottenham secured his services for £3m in January 2008.
