Tottenham are going through a period of change this summer. He is facing the 2025-2026 season with new coach Thomas Frank, and the biggest change is Son Heung-min's departure. Son Heung-min ended his career at Tottenham 10 years after winning the Europa League and moved to LA FC.
Tottenham busily moved to fill the void that Son Heung-min left. To minimize the biggest leadership vacuum, he immediately handed over the captain's armband to Christian Romero. Romero immediately renewed his contract with Tottenham after being appointed captain, burning his will to stay.
Tottenham have no intention of stopping here. Bentancourt was listed as the next renewal after Romero. Bentancourt, who entered the European stage in 2017 wearing a Juventus uniform, began to suffer in the Serie A stage and left for the English Premier League (EPL). The club that reached out to Bentancur joined Tottenham, with Fabio Paratici, who had worked at Tottenham and Juventus at the time, leading the transfer.

After joining Tottenham, Bentancourt was consistently given opportunities and played as a main player. In the 2022-2023 season, he suffered a season out injury due to a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament, but Bentancur returned from injury and remained in his position by showing his skills. In the previous 2024-2025 season, Bentancourt played 44 games and played a lot of time. However, ahead of last season, he made racist remarks about his close colleague Son Heung-min, causing a stir.
Bentancourt is a player who can steadily help the midfield if he stays at Tottenham. This is even more good news for Tottenham, which has been doing well since the opening of this season. If he plays for Tottenham until 2029, the expected contract period, Bentancur is expected to devote most of his prime to Tottenham. John Wenham, who is fluent in Tottenham's internal news, said "Bentancourt started from the Super Cup and sees Frank as a key player. Maybe I'll sign a new contract by 2029. If that happens, it will be like a new signing for Tottenham" he evaluated.
Starting with Romero, Tottenham has begun to renew long-term contracts with its main players. Attention is also focusing on whether Chairman Daniel Levy will leave a few players on the team and help them build up their power to take on additional championship challenges in the future.
