Tottenham Hotspur defender Jan Vertonghen has praised teammate Harry Winks for making "unbelievable" progress since last season.
The 21-year-old made just two appearances for Mauricio Pochettino's side last term but notched up his 27th of the campaign in his side's 3-0 FA Cup victory at Fulham on Sunday.
Winks's partnership with Victor Wanyama impressed at Craven Cottage and he is in contention for a place in the starting XI for the second leg of Spurs' Europa League tie with Gent at White Hart Lane later this week.
"He had a very good game against Gent [last week's first leg], obviously the result wasn't very good," Vertonghen told the Spurs website.
"If you see how he improved in the last couple years it is unbelievable."
Winks signed a new long-term deal last week to keep him with Spurs until 2022.
