Tottenham injury update: Porro and Danso return, ‘small problem’ for Micky Van de Ven

Igor Tudor has delivered the latest on Tottenham Hotspur’s injury situation as Spurs prepare for a crucial London derby against Fulham.

Tottenham Hotspur will have seven days’ rest before returning to Premier League action following their 4-1 North London derby defeat.

Their next fixture comes against another London rival in Fulham, who head into the clash on the back of a 3-1 win over Sunderland.

When the two sides last met this season, it was the Cottagers who claimed a 2-1 victory at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Igor Tudor updates on Pedro Porro and Kevin Danso before Fulham

Spurs remain locked in a relegation battle and cannot afford further slip-ups, with four points separating them from 18th-placed West Ham United.

After a disappointing display last weekend, Igor Tudor will hope the issues within his Tottenham side begin to ease.

On the injury front, there is some encouragement, with Kevin Danso and Pedro Porro back in training, while Richarlison recently returned from injury last week.

However, Cristian Romero remains suspended but is due back for the clash against Liverpool next month, while the longer-term absentees continue their recovery with return dates still some way off.

Tudor has now provided an update on his Tottenham squad ahead of the London derby with Fulham, stating (Football London): “Yes [Porro and Danso back and available]. A small problem for Micky [van de Ven] in his little finger, but he’s okay.”
