The contract renewals continue to come thick and fast at Tottenham and this one might excite you a little bit more than Friday’s news regarding Tom Carroll.
Dele Alli has signed a new contract keeping him at Spurs until 2022.

Alli spoke to Spurs TV this morning and had this to say on his decision to commit his future to the club.
“It’s been good and I’m happy to be here playing at Tottenham.
“Personally I can’t think of anywhere better, with the fans, the manager we’ve got here and the young team.
“It’s a great place to be.”
The six-year contract safeguards Spurs from potential bids from rival clubs. Signed from MK Dons in 2015 for an initial fee of just £5m, Alli has quickly established himself as a key player for the club, scoring ten goals in 33 Premier League games last season.
Alli only extended his contract in January, when he signed a £25,000-a-week deal and now he has won another pay rise, with reports claiming that he will now earn £55,000-a-week.
