Tottenham set to name new price for Toby Alderweireld once £25m release clause expires

Tottenham will demand £40m for Toby Alderweireld once his £25m release clause expires on Friday, report the Daily Telegraph.
The Belgium international is currently available for a cut-price fee due to the terms of his contract.
However, no club has yet triggered the clause by paying £25m, and time is running out for potential suitors to do so.
Manchester United have made Alderweireld a back-up option should they fail to land Harry Maguire.

Alderweireld has just one year remaining on his Tottenham contract, but the club do not want to lose him on the cheap.
