Spurs boss Ramos expresses doubts over captain Ledley's White Hart Lane future

Tottenham captain Ledley King has suffered another major blow after Juande Ramos refused to confirm if he will be at the club next season.

King has been plagued by injury problems over the last few years and has only started four Premier League games this season.

Time out: King is missing the last five games of the season

The England defender played through the pain barrier to lead his side to Carling Cup this season, but has taken the decision to miss the final five games and hopefully make a full recovery over the summer.

But King is now facing an anxious wait to see if he will still be at the club and named captain next season as manager Ramos is still unsure over which players will be at White Hart Lane next season.

Ramos said: "We will have to wait and see if he is here next season. We don't know what the squad is going to be like and we will make that decision at that time.

"We will have to see what state he is in and see the diagnosis from the doctors.

"I know perfectly well what the situation is with Ledley's injury only the doctors could provide that information."
