At last, the rumours are over. Tottenham have confirmed that Rodrigo Bentancur has signed a fresh long-term contract with the club. The news dropped on Friday, October 3, 2025, and it means the Uruguayan midfielder will be sticking around far longer than his old deal, which had been due to run out in June 2026. Spurs didn't want to take chances, so they tied him down early.
Since arriving from Juventus back in January 2022, Bentancur has turned into a real heartbeat of the midfield. He's pulled on the shirt 122 times, scoring nine goals, but numbers don't really tell the story. His control, the way he knits things together, and of course his big role in last season's Europa League triumph- all of that explains why Tottenham were desperate to keep him.
This season alone, he's already featured nine times, and he looks comfortable in Thomas Frank's new set-up. Even though it was disallowed due to a foul in the build-up, he found the back of the net in Tottenhams 2-2 draw against Bod/Glimt as reported by Softfootball .
