Defoe ready to push for Spurs departure

Jermain Defoe is ready to push for Tottenham departure.

The Mirror says Defoe, 31, is concerned about his World Cup place after losing his status as a regular starter at Tottenham this season.

Spurs boss Andre Villas-Boas has used big signing Roberto Soldado this season with Defoe becoming more of a bit-part player or regular substitute.

Queens Park Rangers and his former club West Ham have also been looking at developments, even if a return would be a gamble because he had an acrimonious exit from Upton Park earlier in his career.
