📣 Postecoglou delivers encouraging update on Mikey Moore fitness | OneFootball

Ange Postecoglou has provided an update on Tottenham's injury situation ahead of their EFL Cup clash with Manchester United on Thursday.

There were concerns over Destiny Udogie, but the coach revealed that the defender could still be in contention.

"Destiny, no injury, but he's still a bit sore from the game. Not ruling him out but we'll see how he is with the turnaround."

Postecoglou then turned his thoughts to Micky van de Ven and Christian Romero.

"I think both will be in the new year. Not as significant an injury as last time with Micky but obviously having a setback the medical team is going to make sure he is right to go."

There was better news on Mikey Moore, and further updates on Ben Davies and Richarlison.

"Mikey is back in training. The next cabs off the rank are Mikey and Ben Davies potentially next week and Richarlison potentially first week of the new year."

Finally, the tactician provided his thoughts on facing new Manchester United boss Ruben Anorim.

"He seems to have come in and made an impact straightaway. He's obviously tweaked the formation a bit and is giving players an opportunity.

"But as they showed at the weekend, they are very tough competitors. Looking forward to meeting him."

Spurs also face a tough test at home to league leaders Liverpool on Sunday.
