Jermain Defoe

Tottenham Hotspur striker Jermain Defoe has suffered an ankle injury during the training camp in Dubai.

Defoe broke down during a session in Al Ahli’s Rashid Stadium where Spurs were training as part of their five-day break between matches.

“Defoe has an injury again. He’s had a problem with his ankle before and it didn’t feel too good,” Redknapp said in Dubai-based newspaper The National.

“We’re trying to finish in the top four and it’s so close. But we’ve got so many players injured, people forget.

“We’ve got Tom Huddlestone, Younes Kaboul, Ledley King, [Jonathan] Woodgate, [Gareth] Bale, [Rafael] Van der Vaart.

“If you could pick a team of injured players it would be a fantastic team.”
