Tottenham Hotspur expiring contracts: Who is free to leave in 2026 and 2027?

Tottenham Hotspur expiring contracts: Who is free to leave this summer and next?

Seventeen was the number for Tottenham Hotspur in the 2024-25 season, in both the best sense and the worst sense for Ange Postecoglou.

The Australian ended Spurs' 17-year wait for another trophy in the Europa League, but a 17th-placed finish in the Premier League was a sack-worthy ranking in the eyes of Daniel Levy and other Lilywhites chiefs.

A few free agents followed Postecoglou out of the door in Alfie Whiteman, Sergio Reguilon and Fraser Forster, but which players could follow in the next 12 or 24 months?

Here, Sports Mole takes a look at the Tottenham players whose contracts either expire at the end of June 2026, or in the summer of 2027.


Which Tottenham players are out of contract in the summer of 2026?

Ben Davies

Age: 32

Position: Left-back

Transfer value: £5.1m

Joined: July 23, 2014

Joining fee: £10.8m

Tottenham appearances: 358

Tottenham goals: 9

Honours

  • EFL Cup (1): 2012-13
  • Europa League (1): 2024-25

The longest-serving player at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, experienced left-back Ben Davies also struggled for regular minutes in 2024-25 and is now only a fringe player, but he recently penned a short-term extension ahead of a possible free transfer in 2026.


Yves Bissouma

Age: 29

Position: Central midfielder

Transfer value: £17.6m

Joined: Jul 1, 2022

Joining fee: £24.8m

Tottenham appearances: 100

Tottenham goals: 2

Honours

  • Europa League (1): 2024-25

After a dismal first campaign under Antonio Conte, Yves Bissouma played a more important role in the Tottenham XI during Postecoglou's debut season but is yet to do enough to warrant a contract extension, and an exit in 2026 is now considered likely.


Which Tottenham players are out of contract in 2027?

Richarlison

Age: 28

Position: Striker

Transfer value: £22m

Joined: July 1, 2022

Joining fee: £49.7m

Tottenham appearances: 111

Tottenham goals: 26

Honours

  • Europa League (1): 2024-25

Injuries and inconsistency have plagued Richarlison ever since he joined Spurs, but the Brazilian has made a fine start to life under Frank and may have a future in North London yet.


Dane Scarlett

Age: 21

Position: Striker

Transfer value: £1.7m

Joined: July 1, 2020

Joining fee: Free

Tottenham appearances: 23

Tottenham goals: 1

Honours

  • Europa League (1): 2024-25

Still in the embryonic stages of his professional career, Dane Scarlett can leave Spurs for nothing in 2027, and a new contract is far from a guarantee while he is yet to have a breakthrough year.
