James Maddison wants Tottenham to be in the mix to win the Premier League this time next year after being left frustrated at missing out on this season's 'amazing' title race.
Spurs were top in November but a spate of high-profile injuries and suspensions resulted in Ange Postecoglou's team lacking consistency during the winter months.
It contributed towards Tottenham being engulfed in a top-four battle with Aston Villa instead of the title race, but they could be kingmakers when it comes to deciding the champions.
Arsenal make the short trip across north London later this month, while Spurs face Liverpool and Manchester City in May.
However, Maddison has echoed the recent sentiments of Postecoglou and stated Tottenham want to be in the race next season.

'I've got no interest to be honest. We've got our own goals for the season and I'm not bothered,' Maddison said after Sunday's 3-1 win over Nottingham Forest.
'If we end up winning games against teams that are in that race, it makes no difference. We've got a job to do.
'We are where we are and that is something that gives us good motivation to want to be in the title race next year, seeing how good it is this year.
