No, but perhaps he's OK with being left out of champions league squad and will be a rotation option for domestic cups and league.

Thought that had been changed by UEFA
Edit
It was changed 3 years ago
Tottenham handed huge Champions League boost after rule change
Tottenham have been handed an administrative boost after UEFA changed their position on Welsh players who trained at clubs affiliated with the English league system - meaning defender Ben Davies will now count as 'homegrown' in Europe.

Pointless end of season friendly. Why put your body on the line?

His extension just gives me a feeling that we're going to be trying three at the back a lot more next season.
He's probably the 6th-choice CB and 3rd-choice LB now, which means almost zero playing time in a 4-at-the-back system.
But if we're playing 3 CBs and 2 wing-backs, that changes - he'll see a little more time at CB given the need to regularly swap out the 3, and the wing backs will need more frequent replacements given the physical effort of covering the wing by themselves.
Of course, an ambitious club would have let him go and bought a better player to fill that role, but, well, y'know. So I think this is a real possibility and explains why we kept Ben for another year.
