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.

Tottenham have recently changed their midfield, such as Lucas Beribal and Papesar??Built up, João Paligna joined the position overlapping Bentancur. Nevertheless, he seems to be planning to catch Bentancourt. Bentancourt is known to receive about £93,750 a week. How much the weekly salary will increase in the process of renewing the contract can be seen by Romero's case, who signed the contract earlier.
Tottenham announced the signing of a new captain Romero's contract through the club's official website in August. Romero, who has been selected as the leader to lead Tottenham under Frank with both his skills and leadership recognized, will remain at Tottenham for a longer period of time with a major renewal. The treatment is also unconventional. It was a condition that even Son Heung-min did not receive. UK's Spursweb reports that Romero's new weekly wage is £200,000. Romero has become the highest paid player in Tottenham's squad, he said. It is up 20% from the previous £160,000. Bentancourt is expected to receive around £120,000 if it records a similar increase.
Tottenham, which entered a new era with Son Heung-min's departure and Thomas Frank entering the system, is preoccupied with recruiting new players and holding on to existing key players. Attention is also focusing on whether Bentancourt will become Tottenham's second key veteran after Romero.
