Tottenham handed massive double injury boost ahead of crucial Man United clash

After returning to London to undergo evaluation with Spurs’ medical personnel, reports indicate his issue is also minor.

Both Van de Ven and Van Hecke remain in line to feature against Manchester United at Old Trafford, depending on their final recovery speed before the weekend.

Spurs have had a horrid start and need a result against Man United

The encouraging medical update comes at a vital juncture for manager Roberto De Zerbi. Tottenham have endured a miserable start to the Premier League season, sitting at the bottom of the table without a single win from their opening five fixtures.

Having both first-choice center-backs available for the trip to Old Trafford removes a major tactical headache for De Zerbi.

With pressure mounting, having his primary defensive pair fit will be crucial as Spurs search for a turnaround performance to jumpstart their campaign.
