Overview
- Tottenham confirmed on October 3 that the Uruguay midfielder has signed a new long-term contract, without disclosing its duration.
- Bentancur said he is happy to continue at the club and wants to build on the Europa League win by competing for more trophies.
- Head coach Thomas Frank praised the decision, calling Bentancur a key figure who can dictate games and anchor the team’s style.
- The 28-year-old has made 122 appearances since joining from Juventus in 2022, started the Europa League final, and returned from a 2023 ACL injury to reclaim a regular role.
- The extension comes after he entered the final year of his previous deal and fits Spurs’ retention push that also saw Cristian Romero sign a new contract in August.
