Tottenham Hotspur are planning to offer Serge Aurier an extension, according to Le10 Sport.
The right-back’s current deal lasts until 2022 and things have improved for him this season.
After initially struggling at the north London club, the 27-year-old has ‘finally found the key to success’.
Spurs appointed José Mourinho as Mauricio Pochettino’s successor last November.
It’s claimed the Argentine’s departure allowed the fullback to have an opportunity to settle and become the club’s first choice right-back.
‘Mourinho wants to arm (defend) Serge Aurier’, reads the headline and within the report, it’s stated the Premier League intend to offer a new contract to the Ivory Coast international. The extension proposal should be made in the coming weeks.
The player has been courted by other clubs, but the option to continue in the English capital would be tempting for him.
Le10 adds the Portuguese tactician’s project at Tottenham is ambitious and Aurier seems to adhere to the coach’s methods. Details of new deal, including the duration, isn’t mentioned in the report.
