Will Danny Rose follow in the footsteps of Kieran Trippier and leave Tottenham Hotspur this summer?

Matthew Upson has praised the attitude of Tottenham Hotspur defender Danny Rose and the manner in which he has conducted himself during a time where his future at the club has come into question.

Left-back Rose ended last season in a strong fashion, that’s despite losing his starting place to Ben Davies, and with it having to deal with injury problems.

The Sun previously claimed that the likes of Paris Saint-Germain are keen on Rose, who didn’t travel to Asia for pre-season preparations so he can resolve his future.

Speaking to Football Daily on BBC Radio 5 Live, former Premier League centre-back Upson stated that Rose has sent a ‘clear message to youngsters’ with his actions.

“I do admire the way he has come back towards the back end of last season,” Upson told BBC Radio 5 Live. “Hats off to him. When he’s been needed, when he’s had to step up and play, he has got himself fit and into shape and finished the season really strongly. He has put himself in a good position to get himself a great club.

“This is such a clear message to a young player that if there’s somewhere you want to get to, you cannot beat playing football well.”

Rose must be applauded for the manner in which he had conducted himself of late as his career at Tottenham is seemingly coming to an end.

He burst onto the White Hart Lane scene by scoring one of the most spectacular North London derby goals ever scored.

But since Mauricio Pochettino arrived at the club, his game has gone to levels he may never have thought he’d reach, as he is now seemingly preparing for a new chapter.
