Overview
- Tottenham confirmed on Monday that Dutch centre-back Micky van de Ven has signed a new contract with the club.
- Multiple outlets report the deal is a five-year extension running to mid-2031 while the club did not publish full financial terms.
- Van de Ven said he is proud and 'excited about what’s to come' and the club praised his leadership after he captained the side late last season.
- The signing follows reported interest from Barcelona and Liverpool and is being presented by sporting director Johan Lange and De Zerbi as central to the summer rebuild.
- Keeping Van de Ven preserves a near-100 appearance, Europa League-winning defender for Spurs and could shape captaincy and defensive planning if Cristian Romero departs.
