Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed that Toby Alderweireld has signed a new long term contract that will see him remain at the club until the summer of 2023.
The former Ajax man’s future has been the subject plenty of speculation for the past year or so but this news comes as a massive boost for Spurs (Sky Sports).
The Belgian international has showed glimpses of his best form since the arrival of new head coach Jose Mourinho and has put in several outstanding defensive displays.
Some Spurs fans on social media were over the moon over when they heard the news and raved about the 30-year-old’s quality.
A few also questioned if Alderweireld’s decision to put pen to paper on a new deal was more evidence of the alleged falling out between some Spurs stars and Mauricio Pochettino towards the end of his tenure at the club.

This news is bigger than any potential signing we could have made in January. Alderweireld is clearly among the best centre halves in the world and on the evidence of his last few performances, he still has a lot left to give. Hopefully, he will win some major trophies in the next couple of years and leave with legendary status.
