Guglielmo Vicario return update after Antonin Kinsky impressed in goal for Tottenham

There has been an update on Guglielmo Vicario’s fitness ahead of Roberto De Zerbi’s first home game as Tottenham Hotspur head coach.

There are still several injury absentees at Tottenham at the moment, although the situation is not as dire as it has been at times this campaign.

Guglielmo Vicario underwent surgery on his hernia during the international break and subsequently missed the Lilywhites’ 1-0 loss at Sunderland.

The goalkeeper’s surgery was timed to ensure he spends minimal time on the sidelines, and we have now received an update on the Italian ahead of the clash against Brighton.

Tottenham may line up with Antonin Kinsky as Guglielmo Vicario wait continues

Sky Sports have now provided an update from Tottenham’s training ground, confirming that there are no fresh injuries to report for the Spurs squad.

However, they reveal that there was no sign of Vicario in training at Hotspur Way this morning.

While there has not been an official update on the 29-year-old, they suggest that his absence from training could mean that De Zerbi is forced to start with Kinsky again in goal this Saturday.

However, there is some good news for Spurs, with Rodrigo Bentancur having returned to training at Tottenham after being sidelined with an injury for more than three months.

Two senior Spurs stars could be out for the season

This comes on the back of Mohammed Kudus suffering a major setback during his rehabilitation from injury last week, with the Ghanaian not expected to play again this season.

That is also the case with Cristian Romero, who suffered a knee injury after colliding with Kinsky in Tottenham’s loss at the Stadium of Light.

Romero is expected to be out for five to eight weeks, which means his season may be over, but the centre-back is expected to be ready in time for the World Cup.
