Latest Spurs injury news updates ahead of Europa League quarter-final second-leg | OneFootball

The latest Tottenham Hotspur injury news ahead of their Europa League quarter-final second-leg with Eintracht Frankfurt on Thursday.

While Spurs suffered more Premier League pain on Sunday when they were beaten 4-2 by Wolves, their season, and perhaps the future of boss Ange Postecoglou, rest on their Europa League campaign.

Tied at 1-1, Spurs travel to Frankfurt on Thursday looking to progress to the semi-finals of the competition.

Here’s the latest on their players who have been suffering with injuries ahead of that huge game…

Dejan Kulusevski

While it was another day to forget for Tottenham against Wolves, they were at least dealt a boost with Kulusevski returning from his foot injury to come off the bench late on.

Postecoglou had previously ruled him out of starting against Frankfurt but now says it is a possibility following his earlier than expected return.

“We’ll see,” he said.

“I think it was good for Deki (Kulusevski), Richarlison and Mathys Tel to all get minutes and that will be important on Thursday night for sure. It was good to get some decent minutes into them and they all felt good.”

Kevin Danso

The Austrian defender has been absent with a hamstring injury since last month and missed out again against Wolves.

Postecoglou had stated after the 1-1 draw with Frankfurt that Danso was due to return to training shortly afterwards. “It’s touch and go,” he said. “The idea with Deki and Kevin Danso is they are due to start training with the team, if not the end of this week, tomorrow or early next week.”

It remains to be seen whether he is fit enough to be in the squad for the second leg.

Heung-Min Son

Son was a surprise absentee from the squad to face Wolves with Postecoglou revealing afterwards that he had suffered a knock in training.

He suggested it was more of a precautionary measure, however, ahead of the huge game against Frankfurt, in which the Spurs boss expects him to be involved.

“Sonny got a knock and there was no point in him traveling today,” he said.

Wilson Odobert

Like Son, Odobert is also expected to be involved in the squad for Thursday’s game having been left out completely against Wolves.

“With Wilson, as I said before, I was just managing him, but the whole idea was hopefully managing him so he can be right for Thursday night.”

Radu Dragusin

The Romanian defender is continuing his recovery from a serious knee injury and will not be back for a while yet.
