Toby Alderweireld set to return to Tottenham training amid uncertain future

Toby Alderweireld will return to preseason training with Tottenham as speculation grows regarding his future in north London.

The Belgium international has not agreed a new deal with the club, with a clause in his contract stating he can leave for £25 million before the last two weeks of next year's summer transfer window if they activate a contract extension.

However, despite links with Manchester United, Alderweireld insists he is focusing on the new season as a Spurs player.

"This weekend I am just going back to London because then the preparation starts at my club," he told HLN Sport. "I have been working on my condition for a while because I want to be as fit as I can be."

Alderweireld will report back for training alongside eight of his fellow World Cup semifinalists and winning captain Hugo Lloris.

Tottenham end their preseason with a trip to La Liga side Girona on Saturday, before facing Newcastle in their Premier League opener on Aug. 11.
