London – Tottenham Hotspur forward Lucas Moura has signed a one-year contract extension that will keep him at the Premier League club until 2024.
The 26-year-old's new deal is a reward for his superb end to last season, which included a hat-trick in Tottenham's thrilling Champions League semi-final win at Ajax.
Lucas was a key player in Spurs' run to the final in Madrid – lost to Liverpool – also scoring the late group stage equaliser at Barcelona that took them into the last 16 before his semi-final heroics.
That treble in Amsterdam, which included a last-gasp winner, was his second hat-trick for Tottenham after he also scored three against Huddersfield a month earlier.
He eventually scored 15 goals in all competitions last season and is now a trusted member of coach Mauricio Pochettino's squad following a slow start in north London.Read More
