Team news ahead of Villa – two players back from injury

Antonio Conte had a double dose of good news after training on Thursday, as he reported that two players are back in the frame ahead of Saturday’s trip to Aston Villa (kick-off 5.30pm UK).

Left-sided players Sergio Reguilon and Ryan Sessegnon have returned to training and will provide extra selection options to the Head Coach as we head to Villa Park.

Sergio missed last weekend’s 5-1 home win over Newcastle with a knee problem, while Ryan has been out for a month with a muscular injury picked up in the 5-0 victory over Everton on 7 March.

Speaking to Spurs TV, Antonio said: “There are two bits of good news – today, Sergio Reguilon and also Ryan Sessegnon did the training session with us, and now there is only Oliver Skipp to come back to the team with a training session. But it’s a good feeling about the recovery, about Sergio and Ryan.”

Antonio confirmed he has no fresh injury concerns heading into the weekend, with Skipp still missing with a groin issue.

Japhet Tanganga is out for the season after knee surgery.
