Glad the transfer window shut before this gem from the official website...

"In addition, Hugo Lloris, Danny Rose and Harry Kane have all signed new long-term contracts with the Club."

Full article

So, er, why are we being so secretive about Vertonghen 'definitely signing a new contract'?!

Cause he's going to United, innit.




Oh wait the window's closed. Fuck you conspiracy theorists.

United in January, once new boys have bedded in.
FFS. Yeah, they are going to sign 4 left-sided defenders in 2 windows.

JJ said it's sorted and so have everyone else. He's not leaving and if United did want him we'd quote an obscene price.

Clearly he didn't extend or they'd have announced it

New contract doesn't have to be announced during a transfer window. Can be any time, they'll announce it when they want to. All that matters right now is we didn't sell him and Lloris.

he does seem to be living off his 1st season a fair bit, hopefully get can get back to that form. if not then i'm more than happy to see vlad take his place.

To be honest I believe Chiriches is the better defender than Vertonghen Chiriches imo is underrated. I really hope Fazio is the real deal

Lloris

Walker
Fazio
Chiriches
Davies

Stambouli/Dembele
Capoue/Bentaleb

Lamela
Eriksen/Paulinho
Chadli/Eriksen

Soldado

Michael Bridge (SSN):
Tottenham defender Jan Vertonghen is close to agreeing a new contract after “positive” talks with the club. More on #ssn shortly. #THFC

From his agent...

“He is happy at Tottenham and wants to play for the club. He wants to play Champions League with Tottenham and he has a very good feeling about the new manager.

“Last year they made many changes and brought in many new players and it was not so good, but this season it is possible for Tottenham to qualify for the Champions League.”


“Playing at the highest level is, of course, very important for Jan,” he said.

“If Tottenham do not qualify for the Champions League this year then we will have to see what happens next summer.”



The seed has been planted. We've seen how this story ends too many times.

If he super enjoys being here with poch this season and we're competitive/progressive and he can see how poch will finish off shaping the team next summer, we have a chance of keeping him (and others) for next season. After that he'd most likely be off.

Players fall in love with Poch, that's a huge plus for us at the stage we're at right now.
