Tottenham Hotspur defender Kyle Walker is set to sign a new five-year contract with the Premier League club that would bring him in line with the outfit’s top earners, according to The Sun.
Mauricio Pochettino has a young, hungry group at his disposal in North London, with keeping his squad together a key objective for the Argentine coach.
Christian Eriksen penned a new deal with Spurs earlier this week, while discussions with Harry Kane over an improved contract are also being touted in the press.
Great support today, pleased we put on a good team performance for you. Have a safe journey back #COYS pic.twitter.com/mp9xX1t9N5

Walker has been a long-serving player in the Premier League for Tottenham having moved to the London club from Sheffield United in 2009.
The 26-year-old has gone on to become an England international and has locked down the right-back slot at Spurs as his own in recent years.
The report suggests that Walker will pen a new deal to keep him at the Premier League club until 2021 and his wages of £75,000 per week will match some of the top earners at Spurs.
Walker put in another typically industrious display in his side’s 4-0 win over Stoke City yesterday and provided an assist for Dele Alli to score the visitors’ third goal in the Premier League victory.
