The Belgium international had just a few months left on his previous deal before penning the new deal, and the arrival of head coach Jose Mourinho surely played a huge role in his decision.

Alderweireld is delighted to have extended his stay at Tottenham, and he has reacted thus on Twitter to the new deal:

Extremely happy and honored to sign a new deal at @SpursOfficial . I would like to thank everyone at the club, the staff, my team mates, all the wonderful supporters and of course my family for the support on and off the pitch.

I’m really excited for the future.
