Danny Rose has said that he is looking forward to competing with new signing Ben Davies to play at left-back for Tottenham Hotspur this season.

Spurs completed the signing of the Wales international from Swansea City last month, while Rose agreed a new five-year contract extension earlier this week.

He told the club's website: "I'm over the moon to sign my new contract. I'm glad it's been sorted and now I can focus on the start of the season.

"We've brought in Ben Davies now and I'm hoping he can improve me, and likewise I'm hoping I can help him settle in and help him improve his game as well.

"There are two or three good players in each position at the club and we're all excited for the start of the season."

Rose made 20 appearances for Spurs last season.
