Vertonghen could miss end of season at Spurs as ‘he wants to leave’

Jan Vertonghen could miss the end of the Premier League season with the Spurs defender unlikely to accept a contract extension, according to reports.

The 33-year-old defender’s current deal expires in the summer, though there is still doubt about what will happen with the Premier League season set to extend beyond June 30.

Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho was keen for Vertonghen to stay, but suggested the defender’s agent was playing hardball over a fresh contract.

Vertonghen, who joined Spurs in 2012, has not ruled out staying, but suggested back in April that he would like to play in Italy or Spain and has said there have been “serious” offers for him. (Vanguard)
