Tottenham Hotspur have received some welcome news on the injury front, as journalist Paul O Keefe provided a positive update on key forwards Son Heung-min, Richarlison, and summer signing Wilson Odobert.
According to O Keefe, Spurs are optimistic that both Son and Richarlison will be able to return to full training next week, making them available for selection ahead of the Premier League clash against West Ham after the international break.
He shared the update on X:
“Some positive injury news for a change. Tottenham are hopeful that Richarlison & Son will take full part in training with the squad next week and be in contention for West Ham.”
Son has been out of action since suffering a hamstring injury during Tottenham’s Europa League opener against Qarabag. The Spurs captain has missed four games so far, but he is expected to make his return in time for the crucial West Ham fixture.
Richarlison has also been sidelined after sustaining an injury in training, with the Brazilian missing eight matches due to a longer-than-anticipated recovery.
His return to full fitness will bring added firepower to Tottenham’s forward line, where he will be eager to challenge new signing Dominic Solanke for the starting striker role.
19-year-old Odobert, who joined Spurs from Burnley earlier this summer, has been out with a hamstring injury he picked up during the Carabao Cup tie against Coventry City.
The French winger’s return will provide manager Ange Postecoglou with more options as Spurs navigate the demanding season.
With these crucial players set to return, Tottenham will be looking to regroup and come back stronger after the international break.
