Kyle Walker is refusing to give up in the Premier League title race.

Spurs visit London rivals Chelsea on Monday, knowing their title challenge could be over by the time they kick-off if Leicester beat Manchester United on Sunday.

Even if the Foxes are not crowned champions this weekend, they only need three points from United, Everton and Chelsea to finish the job - but Walker says Mauricio Pochettino's men will scrap to the wire.

"It's a difficult one because it's not over until the fat lady sings," Walker said.

"Man United are still chasing something, Everton are not going to want to lose.

"There is no professional footballer who steps onto a pitch and says 'OK, we're just going to chuck this one in.' Everton, probably, have a point to prove, having not had the best of seasons.

"And Chelsea likewise, the last game of the season at Stamford Bridge, they'll want to put out a performance for their crowd, so hopefully, they're not easy games [for Leicester].

"But first and foremost, we need to go to Stamford Bridge and win, and we've got two tough games after that. So nothing is a given."
