Bassong open to leaving Spurs

Sebastien Bassong has voiced his frustration at a lack of playing time with Tottenham this season, saying he is open to a move away from the club in the January transfer window.

The Cameroon defender has found himself behind Ledley King, William Gallas, Michael Dawson and Younes Kabul, and has made only five appearances - just one as a start - in the Barclays Premier League this season as a result.

"Whether I stay or I go, we must find a solution," he told L'Equipe. "I need to play."
