Tottenham Hotspur and England fullback Kyle Walker has become the latest in a long line of Spurs stars to have been rewarded with a new contract, after helping the club to their highest ever Premier League finish in the previous season.
The 26-year-old has agreed an extended deal that will keep him at White Hart Lane until 2021. If Walker indeed remains in North London for the duration of his new contract he will take in a number of seasons at the club’s new stadium and have spent over ten years at the club.
Following the announcement of the deal by Tottenham, Walker himself took to Twitter to celebrate the news, and his comments should delight supporters who have seen him once again prove himself one of the best right backs in the Premier League last, and this season.
Walker has been outstanding so far in the early stages of the new campaign, and now boasts 196 appearances for the Lilywhites since making his debut in 2010, having signed from hometown club Sheffield United in 2009.
The defender is likely set to break the 200 barrier in the next few weeks, and with another five years lined up, will add many, many more games before he’s done at the club.
