Josh Onomah signs new Tottenham contract extension until 2020

Tottenham Hotspur youngster Josh Onomah has been handed a new contract by the club, extending his stay at White Hart Lane until 2020.

Onomah's new deal sees him earn a one-year extension after the Enfield-born youngster agreed fresh terms in July 2015.

"It's a dream come true. Since I was young, it was my dream to play for Tottenham and now I'm doing it, it just seems surreal," Onomah told SpursTV. "I need to keep my head down and carry on working.

"It shows that if you work hard, you'll get the rewards for it. Thanks to the gaffer -- he put me in tough games, he trusted me, he gave me minutes. I thank the gaffer, I thank the fans, I thank everyone close to me who's given me the support that I need to do what I'm doing right now."

The 18-year-old midfielder made his Spurs debut against Burnley in the FA Cup last season and was included in the club's postseason trip to Malaysia and Australia.

This term, he has been a regular in the first-team squad, making 10 appearances in all competitions, including six from the bench in the Premier League.

Onomah's first senior start for the club came in the 4-1 Europa League win over Monaco in November, before he started the 2-2 FA Cup third-round draw with Leicester City at White Hart Lane.
