Tottenham midfielder Moussa Sissoko has signed a new four-year contract that will take him through until 2023 in north London, the club have confirmed.
The 30-year-old, who joined from Newcastle United, has been an integral member of Mauricio Pochettino’s side since his arrival from St James’ Park in 2016.
The seasoned France international, a fan favourite at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, was a member of the Spurs squad that achieved a top-four finish and reached last season's
Champions League final against Liverpool.
Speaking to Tottenham’s official website, Sissoko spoke about his pride at being rewarded with fresh terms and that he hopes to help inspire younger talents at the club to greater success over the near future.
“I’m very proud to sign a new deal with the club,” he stated. “That means they believe in me and are happy with what I’m doing so I can give my best to the club for a long time.
“Hopefully everyone will be happy with my new contract, and of course my family and friends are very happy and proud because they know at the beginning it was tough for me. But I never gave up, I always believed in myself, I was trying to do my best even in the bad moments.”
His efforts for the club won him the Legends’ Player of the Season this year, as voted for by former Tottenham footballers. (Goal)
