Journalist reveals injured Tottenham midfielder was back in training today
Tottenham Hotspur midfielder, Giovani Lo Celso, was back on the training field today, raising the hopes of Spurs fans that he could be close to a return to the first team following his recent injury setbacks.
The Argentine has shown promising signs this season, especially after being away from the club for two years. Under the leadership of Ange Postecoglou, Lo Celso has managed to rekindle his career at Spurs, making 12 appearances in all competitions and contributing with two goals and two assists. However, his progress has been hampered by various injuries, including a hamstring problem earlier in the campaign and a recent muscle strain, which has kept him out for almost a month.
Initially, it was reported that Lo Celso was expected to make a return for the game against Brentford at the end of last month, but unfortunately, he suffered a setback in his recovery process. Now, as the team prepares for the upcoming match against Brighton, Lo Celso was seen participating in training alongside other first-team players. The sight of him back in training provides an optimistic sign for his potential comeback. Moreover, with Yves Bissouma and Heung-min Son also returning from their international duties, the Spurs squad is showing more depth and strength.
In response to a clip shared by the official Tottenham Hotspur social media channels showing Lo Celso in training, journalist Alasdair Gold made the observation that the group of players practicing together is possibly the largest squad that Postecoglou has had to work with this season. There is also speculation that the squad’s bench could go from being short of game-changing quality to being robust enough to almost field an entire second XI.
While it may be a bit early for Lo Celso to make a return for the game against Brighton, fans could soon see him back in action. This presents an interesting predicament for Postecoglou as he will have tough decisions to make in terms of selecting the matchday squad with potentially diverse playing options. The addition of players like Lo Celso returning to the fold could bring about a significant improvement in the squad’s overall strength and depth.
