Team news | Southampton vs Spurs | Bissouma out, latest on Romero, van de Ven

Fri 13 December 2024, 12:30|Tottenham Hotspur

Ange Postecoglou reported that the players came through our UEFA Europa League clash at Rangers unscathed on Thursday night, although Yves Bissouma is now suspended for Sunday's Premier League clash at Southampton (7pm UK).

Mali midfielder 'Biss' was booked against Chelsea last weekend, that was his fifth yellow card in the Premier League so he now serves a one-match suspension in the competition on that totting up process as we travel to St Mary's.

There was also an update from Ange on central defenders Cuti Romero and Micky van de Ven, both injured last weekend, while we posted earlier a positive update on Ben Davies, whose hamstring injury picked up at Bournemouth on 5 December isn't as serious as first feared.

Asked for an update on Cuti and Micky in his pre-match press conference at Hotspur Way on Friday, Ange said: "We probably won't get clarity until next week. When guys get injured, without getting too technical, you need to let the injuries settle down before you get the real prognosis, and that will probably be some time next week with Micky and Cristian.

"Everyone got through last night, they're all good to go. Biss is suspended this weekend, so he'll miss out. Everyone else is okay, as it stands."

Guglielmo Vicario, Mikey Moore, Richarlison and Wilson Odobert also remain sidelined alongside Ben, Cuti and Micky, while Rodrigo Bentancur continues his suspension in the Premier League.
