Tottenham Hotspur have officially announced that they have renewed Antonin Kinski's contract.

Tottenham Hotspur have officially announced that goalkeeper Antonin Kinski has signed a new contract with the club. Since joining from his hometown club Slavia Prague in January 2025, Kinski has been gaining experience and embarking on a significant development journey at Tottenham.

Just days after joining Tottenham, Antonin Kinski made his debut in the League Cup against Liverpool, securing an impressive 1-0 victory. He then made his Premier League debut in the North London derby and went on to make 10 appearances for the team in all competitions during the second half of the 2024/25 season.

For this goalkeeper, who previously played for the Czech Republic's U21 national team, last season undoubtedly presented numerous challenges, but he earned recognition through his consistent performance, tenacious will, and professionalism. In April of this year, with Roberto De Zerbi's first match as Tottenham manager and Vicario undergoing hernia surgery, 23-year-old Antonin Kinski returned to the Premier League starting lineup. He subsequently played in the final seven league matches of the season, making several crucial saves and making significant contributions to the team's successful relegation battle.

Antonin Kinski made several crucial saves in matches against Wolves, Leeds United, and Everton, leaving a lasting impression. Some of these saves were nominated for the Premier League Save of the Month and Save of the Season awards. With a 1-0 home win against Everton and a clean sheet in the season finale, the goalkeeper reached 20 appearances for Tottenham in all competitions.

After completing the contract extension, Antonin Kinski said: "I am very happy and deeply appreciate the trust the club has placed in me. When I joined 18 months ago, my biggest goal was to earn my place through hard work and to play for the team every week."

"Getting to where I am today has been a significant and memorable journey for me. I'm really looking forward to what will happen in the coming months and years. Everyone at the club believes we have the ability to have a successful season, and I want to do my best to contribute to the team. We hope to repay the fans' expectations with our performance and help the club achieve results commensurate with its status."

Sporting Director John Langer said: "Since the club identified Antonin Kinski as a transfer target, we have always believed that he has the ability, character and professional mentality needed to grow into an important member of the team. Over the past 18 months, he has shown excellent adaptability, both on and off the field, which we are very pleased with. This new contract also reflects the club's full confidence in his future development."

“Antonin Kinski has consistently demonstrated excellent professionalism, a proactive spirit, and all the qualities needed to succeed at the top level. Ensuring his long-term retention at the club is of great significance to us. We look forward to him continuing to realize his potential and developing into the player we aspire to be.”

Head coach Roberto De Zerbi said: "Antonin Kinski performed exceptionally well in the last seven league matches of the season, making a significant contribution to the team's progress. I am delighted that he has been able to remain with the club. He earned this new contract through his consistent performance, rigorous professionalism, and continuous pursuit of improvement."

“We are confident in his future. He is still very young and has a lot of room for development. I believe that Tottenham can provide the most suitable environment for his growth and help him gradually become one of the top goalkeepers in Europe.”
