Erik Lamela eager to hear from Spurs about new contract talks

Erik Lamela has declared he'd welcome a new deal at Tottenham.

Lamela signed a five-year deal when he joined Tottenham in summer 2013, although there is a clause in that contract that allows Spurs to extend it by a further two years.

Asked about his future, Lamela told London Evening Standard: "I would like to [sign a new deal] because I am very happy here. I feel part of this team which is improving. I have a group of excellent team-mates and I feel very good around them.

"It would make me happy to play for more years in this shirt. Will I be the next to sign? Let's hope so. At the moment I am thinking only of playing and about Saturday's game against Leicester."
