Spurs Transfer News: Lucas Moura wants long-term contract on Tottenham Hotspur exit
Arnaut Danjuma’s arrival on a loan deal until the summer from Villarreal is perhaps proof of that. Moreover, it is said that Lucas wants a three-year contract at his next club – wherever that may be.
The 30-year-old seemingly wants to secure his long-term future at whichever club he joins. He is versatile, creative, and likes to dribble in the final third of the pitch.
Lucas may not have the pace of yesteryear but he can still make an impact on the pitch if he looks after his fitness. It remains to be seen which clubs will come forward for him if he does become available this summer.
Time back in France would do a lot of good for him to finish his career. Apart from the good times on the pitch, he can relax and unwind at a no bonus casino.
Moura to leave Spurs
Tottenham Hotspur could be set to lose Lucas Moura for nothing this summer. The Brazilian forward is in the final five months of his deal at N17.
A contract renewal is yet to take place and according to journalist Bruno Andrade and UOL (h/t Transfer Tavern), Moura is set to leave the club at the end of the campaign. He was signed from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in the winter transfer window of 2018.
He has made memorable contributions since then, most notably his hat-trick against Ajax Amsterdam in the UEFA Champions League 2018-19 season. But recently, his influence on the first-team set-up has completely diminished.
Lucas has been reduced to playing just 93 minutes of Premier League football this season. Fitness issues have hampered his progression under manager Antonio Conte, who seems to have completely lost trust in him.

It’s hard to envisage him playing a big role at a club of Tottenham’s stature but he still has what it takes to make it at a fairly decent club. For us, it won’t be a big miss if he leaves. It’s time to upgrade our attack and future-proof it given Harry Kane is 29 and Son Heung-min is 30.
