LONDON -- Jan Vertonghen says the "total picture" at Tottenham Hotspur convinced him to sign a new contract with the club, but added he is unlikely to finish his career at White Hart Lane.
Last week, Vertonghen, 29, became the ninth senior Tottenham player this season to extend his deal, keeping him in North London until 2019.
The Belgium international has made over 150 appearances for Spurs since joining from Ajax in 2012, and he says the club have made positive strides in that time, particularly since manager Mauricio Pochettino's arrival in 2013.
"It's the total picture," Vertonghen told a news conference when asked why he had committed his future to the club.
