Tottenham Hotspur target Joachim Andersen has boosted Sampdoria's chances of keeping him by signing a new contract with the Italian club.
Andersen has been in superb form for Sampdoria in Serie A this season and the Denmark Under-21 international's progress has not gone unnoticed.
Tottenham have been scouting him, while Juventus and Inter are also interested; Manchester United have had the centre-back watched too.
But Sampdoria have sent out a statement of their desire to keep Andersen.

The defender has put pen to paper to a contract running until the summer of 2022 with the Serie A side.
Sampdoria are likely to be boosted in their desire to keep hold of Andersen, though it remains to be seen if a big money bid could yet focus minds in Genoa.
The Blucerchiati eased Andersen into Italian football last season and their patience is paying dividends as the defender is now a key man at the club.
