Left-back, who has impressed under Ange Postecoglou this season, agrees to new deal until summer of 2030

Destiny Udogie has signed a new contract with Tottenham Hotspur until the summer of 2030.

The 21-year-old left-back has impressed in his debut season with the club, starting 14 Premier League matches and becoming a key member of Ange Postecoglou's new-look side.

Udogie registered his first goal for Spurs in their 4-1 win against Newcastle United last Sunday, and has also provided two assists in 2023/24.

🎙️ “I’m really happy because I think to be here at this club is a big joy for me, so I’m really happy for this opportunity and it’s a pleasure.”

"I’m really happy because I think to be here at this club is a big joy for me, so I’m really happy for this opportunity and it’s a pleasure," Udogie said on the club's official website.

"From the first day I came in, I feel at home. The players, the coaching stuff and the club, I feel so welcome and I am happy to be here.

"Everyday I am learning something new, playing with good players and it's a benefit."

Udogie initially joined Spurs in the summer of 2022 from Udinese, but he returned to Italy on a season-long loan.

Following a string of impressive displays this season, Udogie earned his first call-up to the Italy senior squad in October and made his debut in a UEFA Euro 2024 qualifier against Malta.

Udogie and Spurs ended a five-match winless run last time out against Newcastle and will aim to win back-to-back matches for the first time since the end of October when they visit Nottingham Forest on Friday, with the opportunity to move level with fourth-placed Manchester City.
