He further clarifies that &#8220;club sources confirm&#8221; that a deal between the two parties is now sealed and in place with the general understanding is that it&#8217;s all done.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Read More:\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/11\/30\/tottenham-hotspur-jean-clair-todibo\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Tottenham Hotspur Emerge As Contenders For Ligue 1 Talent<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>He also adds that Spurs are currently very happy with the performances of the Italian full-back and that Udogie is going to be receiving an increased salary with his new deal. He is currently <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spotrac.com\/epl\/tottenham-hotspur-fc\/payroll\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">rumoured<\/a> to be earning modest wages of around \u00a345,000-a-week, but is going to see his amount bumped up with the deal. The 21-year-old has become an important part of Ange Postecoglou&#8217;s system at Tottenham and has heavily featured as his left-back ahead of the likes of Ben Davies and Ryan Sessesgnon.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Watch:\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Every Premier League Club\u2019s Biggest Problem<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Biggest Problem with YOUR Premier League Club\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2GNhwMen_Qo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>What Earned Udogie A New Contract<\/h3>\n<p>The Italian full-back actually <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/08\/08\/fabrizio-romano-tottenham-hotspur-destiny-udogie\/\" target=\"_self\">joined Tottenham<\/a> in 2022 but ended up spending the 2022\/23 season on loan at Udinese.
