Jan Vertonghen's agent Tom De Mul has insisted the 32-year-old still has a future at Tottenham following the defender's reaction to being substituted in the 3-2 FA Cup victory over Southampton.
With the score at 1-1 Vertonghen was brought off by Jose Mourinho in the 54th minute, and appeared devastated as he took his seat in the dugout.
Some questioned whether it may be one of the last times we see Vertonghen in a Spurs shirt, with his contract set to expire at the end of the season.
But speaking to HLN Sport De Mul said his client was simply disappointed with his display in the game.
"He's feeling better now," De Mul said. "His reaction had nothing to do with his future. He was just disappointed when he got subbed off.
"He was unhappy about his performance and the team's performance in the first hour.
"Jan still wants wants to achieve great things with Spurs. He wants to qualify for the Europa League or Champions League, to win the FA Cup.
"He is 32, but still very ambitious. He is focused. He still has so many targets. The European Championships are a super important goal too."
It remains to be seen whether Vertonghen is offered an extension to his current deal at Spurs, but De Mul said he would be content to stay at the club.
He continued: "Jan is still super happy at Spurs and loves London. He is still very committed. There's a lot of respect for Tottenham, just like there is a lot of respect from the club towards us.
"That's logical after eight seasons. There is a connection.
"We haven't reached an agreement as yet, but we don't rule out anything.
"There's interest in him as a free agent, but Spurs is a very interesting option for us. The door's still open."
