Report: Nabil Bentaleb close to new five-year deal at Tottenham Hotspur

Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Nabil Bentaleb is close to agreeing a new five-year deal with the club, according to a report.

The 20-year-old has become an important player at White Hart Lane following a series of impressive performances with Mauricio Pochettino's men last season.

The two parties have been in discussions over a new contract for some time, and the Algerian conceded that he was beginning to become frustrated over the delay in securing a deal.

However, following speculation linking him with a move away from Tottenham, he and the club have finally been able to come to terms on a deal that will keep him at the Lane until 2020, reports The Mirror.

Bentaleb made 35 appearances for Spurs in all competitions last season.
