Dembele injury update

Andre Villas-Boas has confirmed that Mousa Dembele is likely to be fit in time for Spurs to host Southampton on Saturday.

The midfielder hobbled off during the first half of our 2-2 draw at Wigan Athletic last weekend after picking up a muscle injury. Dembele has responded well to treatment and is expected to train with the rest of the Spurs squad on Friday morning.

He’s making a good recovery, hopefully he joins training tomorrow and we’ll reassess him and see how it looks. There is a good chance that he can play the game,” Villas-Boas told the press conference on Thursday.

Hopefully Dembele can regain some of his early season form and help us to three points at the Lane. COYS.
