Jermain Defoe
is an English footballer. He plays as a striker for Sunderland. He began his
career in the age of fourteen. He joined their youth football team. After two years,
he moved to West Ham United in the age of sixteen and rising through the ranks.
In 2000, he made his debut for West Ham. After West Ham’s demotion, he moved to
Tottenham Hotspur in January 2004. He spent one season at Fratton Park before
returning to Tottenham in the January 2009 transfer window. He played for
Toronto FC of Major League Soccer in 2014.
After
spending a year with Toronto FC, he joined Sunderland on 30 January, 2015 and
it looks the MLS outfit may have held a slim resentment against their former striker.
Toronto tweeted against his ex-club Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane to
wish our partner Tottenham Hotspur all
the best for the Barclays Premier League match.
He will be
judged on his goal return after signing for Sunderland in time to make his
debut at former club Tottenham Hotspur. The 32-year-old confined a
three-and-a-half-year deal at the Stadium of Light having been persuaded to
head to the north east by former Tottenham coach Gus Poyet, who he played under
previously. Sunderland is the Premier League’s second-lowest scorers with just
18. And there is pressure on Defoe to hit the ground running given their
struggles in front of goal.
