Tottenham defender Calum Davenport is content to bide his time on loan at West Ham. The 21-year-old signed for �3m from Coventry but was immediately farmed out by director of football Frank Arnesen to gain first-team experience.
Davenport told the Spurs website: "In the long term, hopefully it will work out for the best for me.
"With the size of the squad there are quality players ahead of me and I would probably be stuck in the reserves."
Davenport added: "I can get my family down and get settled and hopefully the time will come soon when I can get involved with things at Tottenham.
"You want to play at the highest level, test yourself and do what you can with your career.
"I was at Coventry five-and-a-half years and I felt the time was right to move on.
"I only had nine months left on my contract, Coventry needed the money so it worked out well for everyone."
