Defoe dismisses rumours linking him with a move away to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 in the January transfer window and commits himself to Tottenham Hotspur....
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jermain-Defoe-c18359 has come out and stated that he is staying at Tottenham for the remainder of the English Premier League season despite talk of his move away from the North London club towards Liverpool.
The English striker has not seen much game time this season and as a result he might be looking to seek a more permanent starting place at some other club in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 as with the European Championships coming up in the summer, Defoe
will hope that he is still in contention for the England squad when Capello decides who gets on the plane to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ukraine-c3032.
Harry Redknapp has already assured the former Portsmouth striker that he will get a chance to prove himself at Tottenham more often than not but with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Emmanuel-Adebayor-c12526 getting the nod ahead of Defoe, the
Englishman is bound to get disenchanted with life at the White Hart Lane.
Defoe said in his latest interview, “At the end of the day it's not a case of me saying I want to go here, I'm not playing; I want to leave the club. I've been here six years, I've never said that once. I think the fans know that.
It's just a case of me playing. I could understand if I was 19, 20 and I had time on my hands but I'm 29 now and, like I've always said, all I want to do is play football. It's as simple as that."
He added that he is a Tottenham player as things stand and if the manager trusts him to start against Manchester City in Tottenham’s next league encounter then he will try to do his best as he is committed to Tottenham Hotspur.
Defoe also elaborated that Tottenham can win the English Premier League title as it is not impossible for them to do so.
Redknapp will hope that his striker sorts his priorities out once and for all in the January transfer window so that Tottenham can build on their form in the second half of the season and look to surge up the table above the likes
of Manchester United and Manchester City.
