Tottenham Hotspur defender Danny Rose will wait until the end of the season to find out if he has a future at White Hart Lane.

The young left back has impressed on loan at Sunderland this season and the Black Cats are keen to sign the England under-21 international on a full time basis.

The 22 year old was loaned out due to lack of first team opportunities in North London but his stella individual displays at the Stadium of Light may have changed that.

Current Spurs left back Benoit Assou-Ekotto has been injured for a large part of this season leaving them with a lack of cover in that position.

Sunderland boss Paolo Di Canio has praised the youngster but admitted he has no idea if he will join the North East club or not.

“He’s our player at the moment. Sunday will be his last game and then we will see,” Di Canio told the Shields Gazette.

“I don’t want to talk about the future because we have to focus on the next game.

“In my opinion, he can improve a lot defensively. He’s an attacking-minded left-back, but he has to improve a lot defensively.

“He’s got a great future in front of him. He’s a powerful guy. The strength and elasticity he’s got mean he can run forward with the ball and beat people easily.

“It’s obvious he can play at the top level, but everybody has to improve."
