Croatia midfielder Niko Kranjcar has admitted that he may seek to leave Tottenham Hotspur in the near future if he does not secure regular first-team action.

The 26-year-old has started just one game so far this season and is clearly frustrated with his predicament at White Hart Lane.

He told Mediaservis:"Of course I have to wait to see what Tottenham have to say, but as things stand, a transfer somewhere else is not that far away.

"I am not angry or too disappointed. I believe that things will improve at Spurs, but if not then I will look for a club where I can play week in and week out.

"I don't want to spend my years just sitting on the bench, because I love this sport which is why I'm unhappy when I'm not playing more regularly."

Kranjcar joined Spurs from Portsmouth just before the transfer window shut at the end of August 2009 and has since scored eight goals in 38 appearances for the North London outfit.Subscribe to Football FanCast News Headlines by Email
