Glad to see him comment on that. Should be in the top group of earners at the club despite not quite hitting his potential yet.

He always seems to me like one of the 'nice' guys in our team (amongst many others), so very glad to see him come out and deny these rumours.

I read this story on the Independent website which had more quotes from his agent:

"The only thing that I can say is that if money were the most important thing, Christian would not have gone to Ajax in the first place.

"At the time, he was 16 and we were in contact with clubs like Barcelona, Chelsea and AC Milan.

"And if money were the most important thing, he wouldn't have joined Tottenham three years ago. He had interest from some of the richest clubs in the world.

"But Tottenham were the only club he wanted to join, and he is happy.

"In the eight-and-a-half years that I have worked with Chris, we never made any comments on contract negotiations and we will not make any exception on this, not even confronted by some funny internet rumours."

I'm glad he's not saying he wants 150k.a week or he'll leave because I don't think he'll get it. Sooner he signs a new contract the better.
