Toby Alderweireld has thrown his future at Tottenham Hotspur into doubt after the Belgian centre-back claimed he was not looking beyond this season.
Spurs chose to activate a one-year extension in the 30-year-old’s contract this season, but that option also includes a £25m release clause that a number of top-level clubs may seek to exploit.
Alderweireld has been an integral figure in Mauricio Pochettino‘s side this season, after a deal to join then Jose Mourinho’s Manchester United failed to materialise in the summer, and has since started 38 games this season.
Speaking to Sky Sports, while on international duty with Belgium, Alderweireld said: ”There’s a lot to play for this season. And in the end I have a year contract left at Spurs, so I don’t look further than this season.
“Other things I don’t know. I am very happy at Spurs, so we will see what the future brings.
“I still feel very fit. I think I played a lot of minutes this season so I showed that I am fit – I don’t feel 30, I feel younger.
“So as I said, I am very happy and I just try to watch game-by-game. This season there is a lot to play for so I will give my best for that.”
