Tottenham gets important injury boost before Arsenal match

Tottenham Hotspur

Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou has given some good news to the fans. He confirmed that Richarlison and Pedro Porro will be available in the squad to face Arsenal. Arsenal visit the Tottenham Stadium in the North London derby. Tottenham will be looking to ruin Arsenal’s title run. If Spurs manage to win, it could boost their top four dreams. Pedro is training with the squad. He had pulled his hamstring during a heavy defeat to Newcastle. Richarlison will be back after nursing a knee issue and will be in the squad to face Arsenal in the North London derby. However, the Spurs will miss out on Oliver Skipp. Oliver Skipp has been a good option for Ange this season in the midfield.

“Skippy picked up a small knock in training, so he’ll miss this weekend,” Postecoglou said at his press conference on Friday.

“Pedro and Richy both trained all week, so both are available.”

Moreover, Destiny Udogie is unable to attend the play because he recently had quadriceps surgery. He is out for the rest of the current season. This is a big loss for Tottenham, with Udogie making 28 Premier League appearances this season and playing a crucial role in Postecoglou’s system from left-back, and the Italian will play no part at Euro 2024 this summer, which is a blow to Udogie.

“From the last game, disappointing one for Destiny, for ourselves as well because he’s been a big part of our year,” Postecoglou said.

“It was an unfortunate incident in training; he’s had the operation; it’s gone well, and hopefully he’s in time for pre-season to get back into it.”

Tottenham will look to defeat their bitter rivals, Arsenal, at home. The North London Derby always entertains, and we hope that this match delivers the same as its predecessors.
