Ben Foster has dismissed claims he could leave Watford for Tottenham Hotspur in the summer as "paper talk", claiming he is happy at Vicarage Road.

The goalkeeper appeared on TalkSport yesterday to discuss the Hornets' stunning victory over Liverpool on Saturday afternoon when he was asked about reports linking him with a move to the North London club.

Foster is yet to sign a new deal with Watford and his contract is set to expire this summer.

He claims he has had no contact from anyone else, but that he is enjoying the sense of freedom of having his options open at the end of the season.

“That’s complete paper talk," he said.

“But, I am out of contract in the summer.

“There’s been nothing yet [a contract offer from Watford] but it’s not something I’m really thinking about too much.

“It’s the first time in my whole career that I’ve actually been out of contract at the end of the season, and I don’t really know what to make of it. I’m enjoying it, not because I’m trying to leave Watford, that’s not even an option and I can categorically say I’ve had no contact from anybody else, but I think it opens your options and gives you a bit of freedom.

“I’m very laid back in general about stuff, and if I was to start getting annoyed or frustrated about not being offered a new contract it just wouldn’t help, it wouldn’t help me. So it is what it is. I’m not trying to leave Watford, I’m very much enjoying my football."
