# Tottenham Hotspur: Lilywhites contract development emerges this week

**Tottenham Hotspur have agreed a new deal in recent days amid all the noise surrounding advanced contract talks to tie down midfielder Oliver Skipp.**

### The Lowdown: Spurs in ‘positive’ Skipp discussions…

As shared by reliable Spurs correspondent [Alasdair Gold](https://www.football.london/tottenham-hotspur-fc/news/oliver-skipp-contract-kulusevski-romero-23418464), the club are nearing a ‘positive conclusion’ over fresh terms for the midfield sensation.

Indeed, it is believed that Tottenham are now in advanced talks to tie down the Englishman, with a new contract ‘incoming’, news which comes as a ‘big boost’ for the player and Antonio Conte.

Spurs chiefs Fabio Paratici and chairman Daniel Levy also made the decision to [extend goalkeeper Hugo Lloris’ deal](https://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/2022/january/hugo-lloris-signs-new-contract/#:~:text=We%20are%20delighted%20to%20announce,from%20Lyon%20in%20August%2C%202012.) earlier this season, and as per news from the club, some more contract updates have now come to light.

### The Latest: Tottenham extend Fagan-Walcott deal…

As [officially confirmed](https://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/2022/march/new-contracts-for-development-squad-duo/) by the club on Thursday, Tottenham have agreed a new deal for defender Malachi Fagan-Walcott, with the teenager putting pen to paper on an extension until 2023.

The centre-back, who has shone as part of the under-23 side, made [his senior debut](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/malachi-fagan-walcott/debuets/spieler/554173) under ex-manager Jose Mourinho against RB Leipzig in the Champions League two years ago. He was also [named on the bench](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/malachi-fagan-walcott/leistungsdaten/spieler/554173) for two Europa Conference League conference games earlier this season.

### The Verdict: Breakthrough incoming?

Fagan-Walcott is another starlet turning heads at N17 and has been for quite a while, according to reliable reports. [The Athletic](https://theathletic.com/2403230/2021/02/27/loan-watch-skipp-parrott-and-white-how-are-tottenhams-next-generation-faring/) claimed last year that Mourinho is personally a big fan of the 19-year-old, with Jack Pitt-Brooke stating that he was [‘popular’](https://theathletic.com/2403230/2021/02/27/loan-watch-skipp-parrott-and-white-how-are-tottenhams-next-generation-faring/) with the former Chelsea boss.

Meanwhile, as shared by Spurs source John Wenham, who spoke with club favourite Ledley King, the ex-Lilywhites centre-back ‘really rates’ Fagan-Walcott, as do many within Tottenham ([Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/tottenham-expert-hails-malachi-fagin-walcott-news-after-speaking-with-ledley-king/)).

Taking this into account, and with him now been handed fresh terms, it wouldn’t be a big surprise to see him feature in Conte’s main Premier League squads soon.
