Toby Alderweireld signs new Tottenham contract dashing Man Utd’s hopes of cut-price transfer – The Sun

TOBY ALDERWEIRELD has signed a new Tottenham deal – scuppering Manchester United's hopes of bringing the defender to Old Trafford on the cheap.

The North Londoners announced the news this morning and confirmed the deal runs until 2023.

The 30-year-old's last contract was due to expire at the end of last season but Spurs exercised a year-long extension in January.

But extending his stay triggered a clause that meant he could have left for £25million in the summer and Man Utd were his main suitors.

United failed to stump up the cash at the time but were reportedly ready to move again in January with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer looking to bolster their defence.

Jose Mourinho has been a long time admirer of the Alderweireld and tried to sign him in 2018 when he was United manager.
