Defender Jan Vertonghen, goalkeeper Michel Vorm depart from Tottenham Hotspur

Defender Jan Vertonghen and goalkeeper Michel Vorm have made their exits from Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur following the expiry of their contracts.

While Vertonghen departs from Hotspur after a stay of more than eight years, Vorm leaves the Premier League club after six years.

Sharing some pictures of him with his teammates from the field as well as from dressing room, Vertonghen said that his time with the club has come to an end and that he would miss everyone at Hotspur.

“So my time at the club comes to an end. A sad day for many reasons. I will miss the friends I’ve made here, the staff that make the club run, playing at the amazing new stadium & of course you fans,” he tweeted.
