Tottenham Hotspur youngster close to penning new deal?

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly close to agreeing a long-term contract with Jamie Bowden.

While the 18-year-old is yet to make his senior debut, he has already made five appearances for the club's Under-21 side in the EFL Trophy.

As a result of impressing in that competition and academy fixtures, Football Insider claims that Spurs have moved to secure the future of the teenager.

The report claims that Bowden has been offered the opportunity to pen a deal until the end of the 2022-23 campaign.

The defensive midfielder, who has been with Spurs since the age of six, has already travelled with the senior squad to a number of first-team fixtures.
