Old Boy Edinburgh Set For Return

Last updated : 03 May 2002 By
The 33 year old defender who was with Spurs for the best part of 11 years, and who was part of both the 91 FA Cup and the 99 League Cup team, is set for a return to The Lane, with Glenn Hoddle wanting Edinbugh to take up a coaching role at the club's Centre Of Excellence.

Edinburgh who moved from Spurs to Portsmouth at the end of the 1999/2000 season after playing some 200 games for the club, has been dogged by injury since and recently had to announce his retirement from the game after an achilles injury in November.

However his association with Spurs and football will not end there and it seems likely that he will soon be a recognisable face around the Lane once more under Glenn Hoddle - but only as a coach mind!!
