TOBY ALDERWEIRELD'S odds of a move to Manchester United have been cut despite Tottenham extending his current deal.
The Red Devils are favourites to land the defender after Spurs included a £25million release clause in his new contract.
The cut-price fee comes into effect this summer as United are now just 6/4 to be Alderweireld's next club.
The Red Devils are clear favourites in the market as they lead Barcelona and Chelsea in the race to be his next club.
Alex Apati of Ladbrokes said: "Alderweireld may well come cheaper than United initially thought, and with that in mind it's no surprise to see the Red Devils priced so short for a shock move."
Spurs activated the option to extend Alderweireld's contract to ensure they did not lose the 29-year-old for nothing this summer as his previous deal expired in June.

Manchester United are believed to be seeking defensive reinforcements.
Before Jose Mourinho's sacking at Old Trafford, the Special One made no secret of his desire to sign a world-class centre back.
And as they look to turn around their misfortunes, United will be excited by the prospect of signing the Belgium international for a cut-price.
Alderweireld has featured 26 times for Spurs this year, most recently in the 3-0 win away to Cardiff.
