Andros Townsend has admitted that he may have to leave Tottenham permanently following a number of loan spells.

Motivation

Townsend's most recent move saw him spend the latter part of 2012-13 with QPR, and the approach of the Loftus Road club's manager is one that appeals to Townsend. "Harry Redknapp, you know what he's about," he added. "He's a man motivator. He likes to play free-flowing attacking football. As you saw from the years at Spurs, it was attack, attack attack." The England Under-21 international's displays for QPR last term did not go unnoticed by Spurs boss Andre Villas-Boas. "Andros did extremely well in QPR for a team during a difficult time," said Villas-Boas. "So we have allowed him to come back, he's enjoying pre-season, he's showing great motivation to stay in the team. This is what you want from young players coming through."
