Sunderland striker Defoe: Watmore reminds me of Bale

Published on: 25 November 2015

Sunderland striker Jermain Defoe has likened teammate Duncan Watmore to Real Madrid star Gareth Bale.

Defoe played with Bale at Tottenham.

"In a funny way he reminds me of Gareth. When he came on the scene at Tottenham, he used to just get the ball and glide," claimed Defoe.

"He's such a nice boy, I don't think he's bothered about signing new contracts and stuff, all he wants to do is play football and do well for the club. If he can go on to do what Gareth has done then he'll be fantastic. He's the future of this club."
