Benoit Assou-Ekotto feared being forced to quit football (22.05.2009)
The 25-year-old, who was recently voted Most Improved Player by Spurs supporters after establishing himself under Harry Redknapp this season, was out for 18 months and revealed how he was treated alongside amputees in France. “The hardest part of the injury was when the specialist said it might end my career,” said the Cameroon international, who got injured at the start of 2007. “It made me doubt what was going to happen to me and it affected the way I am, my whole being. “I spent about 10 months back in France, doing the first part of my rehab at a centre where there were people who had lost limbs. “It was a very sobering experience for me because I was speaking to people who had their own personal stories and problems, and they certainly gave me hope for the future. “It made me realise that although I had my injury problem, my situation could have been a lot worse.” Assou-Ekotto will be in the squad for the final game of the Barclays Premier League season, with
Spurs needing a win at Liverpool and for Fulham to lose to Everton if they are to claim a Europa League place.
“It will be difficult but we have a good side, Liverpool know that,” said striker Jermain Defoe.
Defoe has just returned from a foot complaint and would have liked the season to continue. He hopes for a chance to impress for England.
“Hopefully, it would be nice for me to be involved, it seems like a life time since I was injured,” Defoe said. “It would be nice to get a couple more games there and be involved.”
Meanwhile, Spurs are expected to unveil their new shirt at the Wembley Cup in July, rather than reveal it early like Chelsea have done.
There has been speculation about whether Mansion, who have one year left on their deal, will continue as shirt sponsors. The naming rights for the proposed new stadium could be included in future deals.
