Tottenham forward Jermain Defoe admits that he could leave Spurs in search for first team football.
The 29-year-old is eager to make England Euro 2012 squad and that is one of the reasons why he could leave White Hart Lane in January.
“It has crossed my mind. Leading into a massive tournament you want to make sure you’re on that plane. Having had that buzz before, you want it again,” Defoe told talkSPORT.
“The problem is I just need to play regularly. The other forwards are playing regularly and scoring goals so they deserve to be in the squad. So it’s about me playing regularly and trying to get back in the squad.”
Defoe says it would be hard for him to leave Spurs, but admits it could be the only option.
“I love the club. I’m Spurs through and through. I’ve been here for a number of years, my family love the club and the fans been with me since day one.
“It’s difficult to think about leaving the club. When you’re playing for a club you love it’s such a great feeling. But I’m 29 now, I just need to be playing football regularly. That’s all that matters.”
