Tottenham striker Defoe: We're all looking forward to seeing Huddlestone

Tottenham striker Jermain Defoe is hoping for a reunion this weekend.

Hull City are the visitors in a match that marks Tom Huddlestone's first return to the club.

The 26-year-old spent eight seasons at White Hart Lane but chose to leave in the summer in search of first-team football.

"We're all looking forward to seeing him," Defoe said of Huddlestone, who could play Spurs again in Hull's Capital One Cup tie in midweek.

"He was a great player here and is doing well for Hull, pulling strings and stuff.

"It is going to be a tough game but it is a game we have to win.

"It is important we keep winning football matches. I am looking forward to both games. We're a club that is going places."
