Tottenham crock King set for more surgery

Tottenham skipper Ledley King hopes to continue his 14 year association with the club after another operation on his troublesome knee this week. King's chronic knee injury has restricted him to 23 starts this season.

The 31-year-old's contract expires this summer and hopes to open negotiations on anther deal once discharged from hospital.

"Now the season is done I am sure there will be some talks," King said.

"To be honest, I am not entirely sure what's going on (in terms of a contract offer).

"I have just wanted to concentrate on trying to play and get my knee right."

"I will have a little clean out, maybe in the next couple of days," King added.

"It's something I had earlier in the season. I missed the first few games when I had an operation and hopefully it's not something serious.

"It is something I will have done and hopefully it won't set me back too much.

"I hope I will be able to have a good season with the knee cleared out."
