The 20-year-old full back was exceptional on his Premier League debut against Newcastle United on the opening day of the season. He was later named as the man of the match as well.
Pochettino will be delighted to have agreed on an extension with the player. Walker-Peters is rated very highly by the Spurs coaching staff and the defender is expected to become a leading first team star in future.
The young defender has represented his country at Under-18, Under-19 and Under-20 levels. He also played a key role in England’s 2017 FIFA Under-20 World Cup triumph in June.
Speaking to the club’s media after the agreement, Walker-Peters revealed that he is delighted to have extended his contract with his boyhood club.
Meanwhile, Spurs have signed the South American keeper Paulo Gazzaniga from Southampton this afternoon.
