Tottenham in talks with Antonin Kinsky over a new contract

Tottenham Hotspur have opened formal discussions with breakout goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky over a lucrative, newly improved long-term contract.

The North Londoners are moving swiftly to reward the 23-year-old Czech Republic international following his impressive end to the 2025/26 campaign, where he produced a string of sensational clutch performances to help Spurs secure Premier League survival.

Kinsky originally arrived at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in January 2025 for £12.5 million. Brought in to provide cover, the young shot-stopper has risen to the top of the pecking order, overtaking Guglielmo Vicario as Tottenham’s first-choice keeper under head coach Roberto De Zerbi.

De Zerbi has been vocal in his praise for the ‘unbelievable’ keeper, and with Vicario widely tipped to return to Italy this summer and Martin Dubravka expected to arrive as a back-up option, Tottenham are eager to cement Kinsky as their clear first-choice keeper.

While his current contract still has three years remaining, the proposed extension will seek to significantly increase his wage to better align with senior first-team starters, potentially extending his commitment even further.

For Kinsky, who now looks to be thriving after a rough patch during which he endured that difficult game at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano, the ongoing negotiations represent a significant show of faith.


Kinsky is the second Spurs starter who could sign a new deal this summer after Pedro Porro recently penned an extension to quell talks of a move away.

Tottenham have been busy in the transfer market as they look to return to the upper echelons of the Premier League table off the back of consecutive 17th-place finishes.
