Naughton set for Spurs exit

London Evening Standard has learned that Kevin Naughton has decided to leave Tottenham in January.

The 26-year-old has struggled for playing time in spite of injury to Kyle Walker and he is no longer prepared to wait for his chance at White Hart Lane.

With USA full-back DeAndre Yedlin also set to arrive, Naughton is hoping to leave the club in the winter transfer window.

Seeing as how the defender’s contract is due to expire at the end of the current campaign, quite a few Premier League sides are showing interest in his services.

According to London Evening Standard, the likes of Crystal Palace, Swansea and Leicester City are all keen on Naughton.

The full-back, who is capable of playing on either side of defence, has only made a total of 41 Premier League appearances since arriving from Sheffield United back in 2009, while enjoying loan spells with Middlesbrough, Leicester City and Norwich.
