Ange Postecoglou has revealed that Pedro Porro and Richarlison have both trained this week and are in contention to face Arsenal on Sunday (kick-off 2pm UK).
Pedro was a doubt having been forced off shortly after half-time in our last Premier League outing at Newcastle United, but the two-week break since has given the 24-year-old ample time to recover from the issue.
As for Richy, the Brazil international hasn’t featured since our trip to West Ham United on 2 April after a recent knee issue, missing our previous two fixtures against Nottingham Forest and Newcastle in order to fully recover. Ange has now confirmed the extended break has given the striker, who has 10 goals and three assists in the league this term, the necessary time to be available ahead of this weekend’s north London derby.
“Pedro and Richy trained well this week so are both available,” Ange said in his exclusive pre-match interview with SPURSPLAY.
After Destiny Udogie was ruled out for the remainder of the campaign having undergone surgery on his quadriceps, he joined Manor Solomon (Meniscus), Fraser Forster (foot) and Ryan Sessegnon (hamstring) on our list of long-term absentees.
