Tottenham Hotspur forward Troy Parrott was spotted taking part in training with the rest of the first team ahead of Sunday’s North London derby against Arsenal (Getty).

The Woolwich will make the short trip to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for the first time since the venue opened in what could be a crucial game in deciding Europa League qualification.

With Tottenham struggling in front of goal after having to rely on a Michael Keane own goal to beat Everton which was followed up by the inability to register a shot on target against Premier League strugglers Bournemouth.

Parrott has not featured since the resumption of the top flight after he underwent surgery to remove his appendix at the end of May (Spurs official).

The Republic of Ireland international was photographed while going through his stretching exercises.

Opinion

It’s great to see Parrott back in training but remains to be seen whether he is fit enough to be able to withstand any form of contact training given the nature of his operation.
