Kazuyuki Toda has been informed by Tottenham that his loan deal will not be extended after being unable to force his way into the first team. The Japanese international's contract comes to an end in January, and with a calf injury currently hampering his opportunities, Toda has been informed that the next few months will be his last at the club. David Pleat told Nikkan Sports, 'There is increasing competition for places in midfield. We probably would not sign him now'. It has not been a good month for Toda as he has also been dropped by national coach and former Brazilian star, Zico.
