Lucas Moura opens up about his Tottenham Hotspur future
Tottenham Hotspur winger Lucas Moura has opened up about his future at the club, with the Brazilian unsure what will happen at the end of the season.
Moura sees his current contract expire next summer, although the club has the option to extend it by another year. But the 30-year-old is unsure if the north London club will exercise this option.
Speaking to Flow Sport Club as translated by Sports Witness (h/t Football. London), the Brazilian opened up about his unsure future.
“So my thought is to finish this season with Tottenham, try to win a title this season and, free of contract, sit down with my family and listen to the offers that will appear. That’s when you analyse everything: country, club, financial side. It’s analysing everything, and then make the best decision. That’s my thought. But now I’m very calm there.”

“If Tottenham want to renew, cool too, a club I like a lot, I’m adapted. Let’s see, let’s hear the renewal proposal. If they don’t want to, I’ll leave for free, and being free, of course, more proposals appear. So it’s a matter of analysing and seeing what we decide.”
The winger has been at the club since 2018, when he joined the north London side from Paris Saint-Germain. Since then the winger has played 213 games for Spurs in all competitions, scoring 38 goals and registering another 27 assists.
However, this season the 30-year-old has struggled to stay fit. The winger has only played in 11 games so far this season in all competitions and is yet to find the back of the net. He is also yet to start a Premier League game for Antonio Conte this season.
While the player has struggled this season, it will be wise for the club to sell him in January to earn some money, rather than lose him for free. The player has struggled for fitness and is also past his prime.

It remains to be seen what will happen with the player in the coming months. One of the top players to have played for the club, his future is looking very likely away from the north London side.
