Kyle Walker-Peters: Tottenham defender signs new contract until 2020
Last updated on .From the section Football
Tottenham Hotspur defender Kyle Walker-Peters has signed a new contract with the club until 2020.
The 20-year-old right-back made his Premier League debut for Spurs in the 2-0 win at Newcastle on 13 August.
Walker-Peters is a product of Tottenham's academy and has represented England at under-18, under-19 and under-20 levels.
He helped England beat Venezuela 1-0 in the final of the Under-20 World Cup in South Korea in June.
"I joined the club as an under-11, so it does make it a lot sweeter being here for so long, growing up in the Tottenham area and supporting the club," he said.
Tottenham sold England right-back Kyle Walker to Manchester City for £45m in July.

The sooner they bring in minimum numbers of English players into a team sheet the better.
He has just helped England win the U20 World Cup playing in 6 matches and won the man of the match in the first premier league game of the season. He is English, 20 years old and being given a chance at a top tier team.
He is therefore represents everything that most people on these threads complain about being wrong with modern football. Stop trolling and get a grip on reality
"Shipping players to lower leagues doesn't necessarily help them."
Try telling Harry Kane that who has said several times that his loan spells at lower league clubs, particularly Millwall, were the making of him

Has one O.K game and people actually think he'll be as good as Kyle Walker in the future?
Kyle Walker (the good one) joined the best club with the best manager in the world for a reason.
Man city will win the league and Kyle Walker will get over 15 assist.

Have you seen him try to cross a ball yet??
But I do worry about his progress if they sign Aurier, like the rumours suggest they might. Then he'd have two people ahead of him and much less potential game time.
Still, good to see academy players making it.
