Tottenham defender Cristian Romero is expected to be fit for the encounter against Brighton, according to Standard Sport.
According to the report, he will be evaluated late but would most likely start alongside Ben Davies.
This is good news for Spurs fans who were worried about the Argentinean’s injury after the game against Everton.
The centre-back was replaced at halftime, and the manager later acknowledged that he was replaced due to a strained hamstring.
Ange Postecoglou‘s lone top-tier center-back is Romero, and his injury would have been devastating.
Micky van de Ven is already out with a hamstring injury and is not likely to return for another couple of weeks.
The only other centre-back option is Eric Dier, who has fallen out of favour with Ange after failing to impress him. Despite the club’s injury woes, he has only made three appearances this season.
