A five-and-a-half-year deal is a lengthy contract for any Premier League footballer, but Mason, 23, is already eyeing a future at Tottenham that extends beyond 2020.
"The length of the contract says a lot of faith in me and hopefully I can keep progressing and stay at the club longer than what the contract is," Mason said of his new deal.
