Premier League confirm contract extension decision for Tottenham

The Premier League has confirmed that players whose contract ends in June will have the chance to sign extensions until the end of the 2019/20 season. A host of players in the Premier League will be out of contract this summer, which is also the end date for many loan deals, and clubs will now have the opportunity to negotiate short-term extensions. A statement read: “At Monday’s Shareholders’ meeting, Premier League clubs unanimously agreed to be allowed to renegotiate and enter into short term contract extensions with players whose deals are due to expire on 30 June of this year. As the UK Government indicated on Monday its willingness for live sport to return behind closed doors from 1 June, the Premier League is exploring paths to resuming the 2019/20 season after this date. “Clubs were concerned over expiring player contracts and registration issues posed by the potential of the 2019/20 season extending beyond 30 June. So, it was agreed by all Shareholders that clubs and players can mutually agree to extend their contracts beyond 30 June until the end of the season.” Jan Vertonghen, Japhet Tanganga, and Michel Vorm are Tottenham players whose contracts with the club run until June 30. Now, these players can see their contracts extended until the end of the season. source – Football.London
