Rodrigo Bentancur has signed a new contract with Tottenham .
The midfielder’s previous deal was set to expire at the end of the season, and the Uruguayan has now committed his long-term future to the club.
Bentancur, who has started eight of Tottenham’s 10 matches under new manager Thomas Frank, is the latest first-team star to put pen to paper, after captain Cristian Romero.
Rodrigo said: "I feel really good and I'm very happy to continue my story with this fantastic club.
"My family are happy; I have fantastic friends and team-mates who work hard every day. I love this Club and feel really good here.
"Winning the Europa League was a fantastic moment and we want to build on this now, to win more trophies.
"We have a new Head Coach, a new captain and I want to enjoy many more years at the Club."
Thomas Frank said: "I'm extremely happy that Rodrigo has committed his future to the Club.
"It shows his belief in what we are building here and that we are starting a journey which we hope will be really special.
"Rodri is a big part of that. He's a fantastic midfielder who can dictate games and be the glue that holds the team together. He also has the ability to arrive in the penalty area, create goals and score them, too."
