DEFOE FUTURE IN THE BALANCE?

Manchester United and Liverpool are reportedly keeping tabs on
Jermain Defoe's situation at Tottenham.
The England striker was dropped for Saturday's 3-0 derby defeat at
Arsenal, a decision which was said to have angered his
team-mates.
And according to The Mirror, Defoe was left devastated to be axed
by Martin Jol again despite scoring a stunning goal in the previous
game against Wigan.
Although he's likely to be back for Tuesday night's home game with
Middlesbrough, Spurs' attacking options have made Defoe's position
in the side far from certain this season.
Aston Villa are also another Premiership club rumoured to be
interested in his services should he decide to leave White Hart
Lane.
