Ange Postecoglou handed big boost ahead of Man United clash as key Tottenham star back in full training
Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou has been given a selection boost ahead of Spurs’ clash with Man United on Sunday as Cristian Romero should be available.
According to The Standard, the World Cup winner returned to full training this week and is in contention to start against the Manchester club at the weekend.
Micky van de Ven is also available for selection following a return from a long-term injury as Postecoglu gets his best centre-back pairing together again for the first time since the defeat to Chelsea in early November.
The Spurs boss has been forced to use full-backs in central defence whilst both players were absent but the North London club have stayed in touch with the top four regardless.
Romero has not played since Tottenham’s 2-1 win over Everton on December 23, having picked up a hamstring strain in that match. Postecoglou said he expected Romero to miss four to five weeks of action at the time but the defender has come back earlier than expected.
The Argentina star missed only three games during the festive period, where Spurs lost one and won the other two, but fans of the club will certainly be happy to see the 25-year-old return on Sunday.
