Jan Vertonghen Coy on Tottenham Future After Revealing Ambition to Continue Playing at Highest Level

Tottenham Hotspur centre-back Jan Vertonghen has remained coy over his future in north London, with the 32-year-old's contract due to expire in the summer.

The Belgian joined the Lilywhites from Ajax in 2012, switching for a fee of €12m. Since his arrival, he has become one of the Premier League's most revered defenders, though Vertonghen is yet to collect any honours with Spurs, despite the club reaching two major finals and sporadically challenging for the title during his time on the books.

Whilst speaking at a press conference ahead of Tottenham's meeting with Bayern Munich in the Champions League on Tuesday night, Vertonghen was asked if he'd begun negotiations over a new deal with his current employers or any other teams.
