Team News: Postecoglou says three injured Spurs stars are back in training

Ange Postecoglou has provided a Tottenham Hotspur team news update ahead of tomorrow’s match against Manchester City during this afternoon’s press conference at Hotspur Way.

Spurs return to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium looking to book their place in the fifth round of the FA Cup, but must overcome the Premier League champions if they are to realistically keep alive their hopes of lifting a piece of domestic silverware.

Such is the protocol, the media are informed of the availability of the Spurs squad ahead of the clash against Pep Guardiola’s side.

Tottenham fans were greeted with the welcome sight of James Maddison returning to training this week after the England international has been sidelined for the best part of almost three months with an ankle injury.

Club captain Heung-min Son remains on international duty with South Korea, while Yves Bissoma and Pape Matar Sarr are both still involved with Mali and Senegal at AFCON.
