Tottenham are yet to made a new attempt to open contract talks with defensive pair Toby Alderweireld and Jan Vertonghen.

Sky Sports says there have been no formal contract talks between Tottenham and both Vertonghen and Alderweireld's representatives yet.

The lack of formal contact is not being viewed as out of the ordinary due to the fact a new manager has only just arrived and there are more immediate priorities, but it's clear time is running out.

Both Alderweireld and Vertonghen, along with Christian Eriksen, are out of contract at the end of the season.

Eriksen is yet to start for Spurs since Jose Mourinho's appointment.
