The agent of Mousa Dembele says he won't sign a new deal with Tottenham before the World Cup.

Dembele's current deal expires in 12 months but he is considering his future at Spurs after starting just 21 of 38 League games.

His agent Tom De Mul said: "Mousa has another one year contract with Tottenham. He has played a fantastic season and there is a lot going on around him – there is a lot of interest inside and outside of Europe, we are waiting for the World Cup and I hope he plays in Russia, because he deserves that after such a good season.

"Avoid a difficult last year like [Toby] Alderweireld? For the time being, Mousa does not sign."
