Thomas Frank has addressed the squad’s fitness ahead of their upcoming Premier League clash against Newcastle United at St. James’ Park on Tuesday night, set to kick off at 8.15 PM UK time. In a pre-match press conference held at Hotspur Way, Frank confirmed that there are no additional injury concerns, assuring fans that the team has successfully recuperated from prior matches.
“Everyone ready for Fulham is now ready for Newcastle,” Frank stated, signaling confidence in his squad’s readiness as they prepare for their fourth match in just ten days. Notably, team captain Cuti Romero is set to return from a suspension that kept him out of the previous match against Fulham due to accumulating five yellow cards.
However, the team will still be without several key players, including Yves Bissouma, Dejan Kulusevski, James Maddison, and Dominic Solanke, who remain unavailable for selection. On a positive note, defender Ben Davies has made a return to the matchday squads for the recent fixtures against PSG and Fulham, and young talents Radu Dragusin and Kots Takai are back in training, which could bolster the team in future matches.
With the squad looking to gain momentum, fans are hopeful for a strong performance against Newcastle, marking an important fixture in their campaign.
