Udogie unsure about Spurs midfield role

Destiny Udogie is unsure about playing long-term in midfield for Tottenham.

The Italy wing-back has featured further afield in recent games.

He told Sportweek: "I don't know if it's the perfect role for me. It's all new, I'm not used to playing midfielder or number 10, but I often find myself there and I'm trying to settle in and help the team.

"But I think the coach's style helped me a lot. For me it's a new way of playing, because last year I was fifth in defense and this year I was fourth.

"However, the coach and the staff gave me a hand in fitting in and I am very grateful to them."
