Tottenham ace Nabil Bentaleb SIGNS new deal (but Arsenal STILL interested)
NABIL BENTALEB has put pen-to-paper on a new deal today, but not the one Tottenham were hoping for.
Bentaleb has been linked with a move away from White Hart Lane after an impressive first season at Spurs.
The player has been outspoken about his frustration over contract negotiations at the north London club dragging on, saying: We've been negotiating for nearly nine months now, since September, and it's getting really long and, of course, I'm getting a little bit tired of it."

That has seen the likes of Arsenal, Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus linked with moves for the impressive Moroccan.
So Spurs fans must have had their hopes raised when Bentaleb posted a picture on social media site Instagram today of him signing a new deal.
Unfortunately for Spurs, however, Bentaleb was committing his future to sporting brand Adidas.
Bentaleb followed up the picture of another featuring a car laden with Adidas goodies.
So while contract talks with Spurs drag on, it's good to know that Bentaleb at least feels properly valued by his sponsors.
