Jermain Defoe adds to Tottenham Hotspurs' worries
TOTTENHAM face a new striker crisis after Jermain Defoe limped off against Monaco just eight minutes in.
The club is yet to finalise the £26million signing of Roberto Soldado and Emmanuel Adebayor, who is linked with a move to Besiktas in Turkey, did not travel to the principality for this crushing pre-season defeat.
Boss Andre Villas-Boas now has an attacking dilema ahead of the new season – especially as Defoe’s replacement Harry Kane has made just one appearance in the Premier League for Spurs.
With Clint Dempsey leaving for Seattle, it could get worse for Spurs as there are rumours that Defoe is contemplating a move to join his old boss Harry Redknapp at QPR.
