Toronto FC allows Defoe to train at Tottenham for a week
TORONTO (AP) - Major League Soccer's Toronto FC has given forward Jermain Defoe permission to train with Tottenham, his former club, for a week starting Thursday as he recovers from a groin injury.
The 32-year-old scored 11 goals in 16 league games for Toronto in an injury-interrupted debut MLS season last year.
Defoe tweeted this week: "Just touched down in the UK from south of France, was training with my fitness guy feeling stronger than ever!"
