Postecoglou provides fresh Lo Celso injury update ahead of Spurs vs Sheff Utd
Postecoglou provides fresh injury update on Lo Celso ahead of Spurs v Sheff Utd gameAnge Postecoglou spoke during his pre-match press conference at Hotspur Way ahead of Saturday’s Premier League clash against Sheffield United.Ange Postecoglou has revealed that Giovani Lo Celso will not be available for Tottenham’s Premier League clash against Sheffield United on Saturday afternoon. The midfielder, who suffered a quadriceps injury in the recent Carabao Cup defeat at Fulham, was not part of Spurs’ squad for their half-time win at Burnley and was also absent from the World Cup qualifiers in Argentina.The sighting of Lo Celso, spotted with his teammates at the Hotspur Way training ground on Thursday, gave everyone hope that he would be back in the squad to face the Blades in N17. However, it now appears he will start next weekend’s north London derby against Arsenal upon his return.“Yes, he is not available this weekend,” Postecoglou said in his pre-match press conference. “He trained with us yesterday but we will give him another week and hopefully he will be available next weekend.
Apartfrom Lo Celso and the long-term absentees, Postecoglou had admitted that “they are all back” and available for this weekend’s match. Given the concerns over Cristian Romero and Son Heung-min during the international break, the news that everyone is safe is equally good news for the team as they look to make it four league wins.“They all came back, they came back yesterday and we had an afternoon session, plus a recovery session for everyone,” explained the 58-year-old. “Today was a complete session and everyone was good, no problems. They’ve all come through training and obviously we’ll see how they recover, but for the moment they’ve come out unscathed.”
