Kyle Naughton has admitted that he may leave Tottenham Hotspur in the summer if he continues to be played out of position, .
The defender has made just eleven league appearances this season, though he has barely featured in his preferred position of right back due to the continued form of his former Sheffield United teammate and namesake Kyle Walker.
The North London signed both Naughton and Walker from the Blades back in the summer of 2009, though England international Walker has made by far the most appearances of the two.
Since moving to Spurs, Naughton has racked up over eighty league appearances in loan spells with Middlesbrough, Leicester City and Norwich City.
With Walker currently out injured, Naughton is set to feature for Tim Sherwood’s s…

Hoping to make up some ground in the top-six chase, Juventude will welcome Vitoria to the Alfredo Jaconi late on Tuesday night.
Juventude
Starting with the hosts, while Juventude might have only made their Serie A return this season, Roger Machado’s men have continued to gain a reputation for their rugged approach. Last seen putting in another gritty performance as they clinched a 1-0 victory at home against Atletico GO, the Verdao have suffered just a single top-flight defeat from any of their opening six appearances. Making a major statement on April 28th as they secured a 2-0 win against Brazilian giants Corinthians, Juventude will also be excited by their extended success at the Alfredo Jaconi. In fact, continuing on from last …
Roberto Mancini does not think Zenit should be considered contenders to win the Europa League, despite eliminating Celtic to reach the last 16.
Callum McGregor s goal earned the Scottish champions a 1-0 lead to take to Russia, but Zenit roared back with a highly impressive 3-0 victory.
Branislav Ivanovic scored an early header to mark his 34th birthday with his third goal in the competition this season and bring Zenit level in the tie.
Daler Kuzyaev beat Celtic goalkeeper Dorus De Vries with a long-range strike before Aleksandr Kokorin scored from an Ivanovic cross to finish the job.
Zenit won the tournament in the 2007-08 season but Mancini believes inexperience in his squad will stop them going all the way again.
I don t feel that we can wi…
Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba has hit out at former employers Manchester United, accusing the club of disrespect.
Pogba s stint at Old Trafford was never short on controversy, with the Premier League giants forced into a legal battle regarding his signature from Le Havre in France.
The Frenchman arrived at United in October 2009, and was mainly a youth team player before breaking through for his first Premier League appearance in January 2012.
But as soon as he got his break, his tenure would end with Sir Alex Ferguson failing to extend Pogba s contract.
United had claimed Pogba wanted a move, but the now 21-year-old said the club falsified his ambitions at the time.
They left me out because they said I wanted to leave. That is disrespect, Pogba told the B…
Rickie Lambert has thanked Southampton for helping him realise a lifelong ambition after joining Liverpool on Monday.
The striker completed a move to Anfield for an undisclosed fee, returning to the club he left as a trainee 17 years ago.
Lambert scored 115 goals in 229 games for Southampton after signing from Bristol Rovers in 2009, propelling the club to the Premier League and himself into the England squad for the FIFA World Cup.
In an open letter to the south-coast club s fans after his move was confirmed, Lambert expressed huge gratitude, claiming Southampton will remain in his heart forever.
He wrote: What can I say…?
Southampton has been my life for the past five years, in which we have achieved all of our dreams and more.
First I have to tha…
Paul Pogba feels the Premier League is clearly the best in the world as he outlined the scale of the challenge facing Manchester United in the title race.
The World Cup winner is relishing United sitting top of the table after 17 games.
Pogba s winner against Burnley on Tuesday put Ole Gunnar Solskjaer s team top of the standings at this stage of campaign for the first time since Alex Ferguson s last season.
The midfielder explained fighting for the biggest trophies is why he returned to the club from Juventus in 2016.
While his agent Mino Raiola has said Pogba wants to leave United, he believes the division his current club play in is tougher than those he would be in if he joined reported suitors Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus and Real Madrid.

Oleksandr Zinchenko lobbied for the EFL Cup to be renamed in Claudio Bravo s honour after the goalkeeper s Wembley heroics sealed a 2-1 final victory for Manchester City over Aston Villa on Sunday.
Goals from Sergio Aguero and Rodri ensured Pep Guardiola s side lifted the trophy for a third consecutive season, although Villa hit back through Mbwana Samatta before half-time and pushed them to the limit during a breathless finale.
Dean Smith s Premier League strugglers came agonisingly close to forcing extra time in the 88th minute when Bjorn Engels rose above the City defence, only for Bravo to somehow push his header to safety via his right post.
A torrid debut season in English football in 2016-17 saw the Chile international lose his status as Guardiola s regula…
Alberto Moreno has admitted he isn t happy at Liverpool anymore. Speaking to Cadena Ser, the Spaniard revealed he is frustrated with the lack of game-time this season.
The former Sevilla left-back, whose deal with the current Premier League leaders expires next summer, says he has been thinking about going back to his homeland, with a return to Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan Stadium one of the possibilities. There is no agreement of a new deal at the moment.
Moreno arrived to Anfield during the days of manager Brendan Rodgers, back in 2014, and since then he has lost his place in the team three times to three different competitors. In 2015, Liverpool signed centre-back Joe Gomez from Charlton Athletic and he was temporarily reassigned to the left-back role due to Moreno s incon…
