“From what I’m hearing” Paul O Keefe names the player who will replace Bissouma against Fulham
Paul O Keefe has shared the latest team news ahead of Tottenham’s match against Fulham.
Several Tottenham players picked up knocks during the international break causing concern for Spurs fans.
Earlier it was reported that summer signing Brennan Johnson who picked up a slight hamstring problem against Arsenal was back in training for Spurs with the club hoping that he would be fit to play against Fulham.
As per O Keefe, the former Nottingham Forest man should be available for selection.
O Keefe who is an FA intermediary also shared that skipper Heung-min Son and centre-back Cristian Romero are also expected to be okay for the Fulham game.
This will come as a huge boost for Tottenham as both the players have been key players for the Ange so far.
Romero has been nothing but a beast at the back forming a solid partnership with Micky van de Ven at the back.
Meanwhile Son has been on fine goalscoring form and is perhaps the only reliable source of goal from the attack for Ange.
Paul O Keefe also confirmed that Yves Bissouma should be fine however he will not be playing due to the red card he picked up in their last game.
He posted on X:
From what I’m hearing currently on the injury front – Son, Romero at the mo expected to be ok and Bissouma too should be fine but banned anyway for Monday. Johnson should be available for selection for Monday.
