Photo: Spurs handed a boost as key man returns to training

Tottenham Hotspur could be set to be handed a boost ahead of the visit of Manchester United on Sunday.

Spurs posted photographs of their training session at Hotspur Way earlier today and one noticeable participant was Jan Vertonghen.

The Belgian central defender sustained a thigh injury during the 1-1 draw against Barcelona in the Champions League on December 11th and has not featured since.

However, the 29-year-old was all smiles during the full session and was looking to get stuck in with challenges which is a clear indication that he could be named in Mauricio Pochettino’s squad for the Premier League match on Sunday.
