Defensive problems mount for Spurs

Sebastien Bassong and Younes Kaboul are Tottenham’s only fit central defenders for tomorrow’s Europa League clash against Rubin Kazan at White Hart Lane.

Ledley King joined Michael Dawson (Achilles), Vedran Corluka (foot) and William Gallas (calf) on the Spurs injury list on Sunday when he came off against Newcastle with a groin injury.
