Tottenham Hotspur could be boosted by the return of long-term absentee Mohammed Kudus over the coming week.
While Spurs fans were given a brutal shock by the team’s performance on the opening day of the season, the events of the last few days have reinstalled some positivity among the fan base ahead of the clash against Newcastle.
Savio completed his long-awaited move to Tottenham on Tuesday, and just a day later, the winger came off the bench to have a perfect debut, getting a goal and an assist as the Lilywhites battered Charlton 5-1 in the Carabao Cup.
Yesterday, Omar Marmoush completed a £60m transfer to Tottenham, with the Egypt international potentially set for his debut against the Magpies.
Mohammed Kudus back in Tottenham training ahead of Newcastle clash
It has now been reported by Tottenham insider Szyexcl that Roberto De Zerbi has been handed another major training boost.
Mohammed Kudus, who has been out of action since the start of the year, reportedly trained with the Spurs squad on Thursday.
The Ghanaian’s return is certainly a huge plus for the Lilywhites, given that James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski, Wilson Odobert and Xavi Simons remain sidelined.
Savio in line to make his full Spurs debut against Newcastle
Not only are Tottenham without several of their key attackers, but De Zerbi has also hinted that Mikey Moore is about to go out on loan.
The Spurs boss is unlikely to throw Kudus straight into the team, given how long the former West Ham man has been out injured.
It thus appears a near certainty that Savio will make his full Tottenham debut tomorrow after his outstanding cameo off the bench against Charlton.
