Ange could now unleash 22-year-old Tottenham ‘superstar’ for first time this season, Fulham beware
Now that the international break is over, Tottenham Hotspur can resume operations.
Spurs, led by Ange Postecoglou, are now in first place in the Premier League standings and intend to stay that way.
After the break, Tottenham’s first game is a Monday night home match against Fulham, another team from London.
Preliminary team news indicates that Spurs’ situation is favorable.
According to the Evening Standard, Tottenham don’t appear overly concerned about the health of Cristian Romero and Son Heung-min, who both had injuries while serving their countries.
Additionally, Pape Matar Sarr, who was spotted on Senegal duty with an ice pack on his foot, allegedly worked out for the Spurs on Wednesday.
Then there are two Tottenham players who were injured but returned before the international break and are ready to go right now.
Giovani Lo Celso and Bryan Gil both started on the bench for Spurs against Luton, although neither played.
Gil’s performance under Postecoglou will undoubtedly be eagerly anticipated by Tottenham fans in particular.
The talented 22-year-old youngster has shown flashes of his talent before. For example, Graham Roberts once referred to him as a “little superstar”.
Gil hasn’t quite gotten going at Spurs yet, though.
He wanted to make a good impression on Postecoglou during preseason, but regrettably an injury kept him out for the first few weeks of the season.
The Spaniard, who is now completely fit, will be anxious to make up for lost time and demonstrate his true abilities to his manager and the Tottenham supporters.
Some of Postecoglou’s Spurs players, like Yves Bissouma, who struggled last season, are now playing at full strength. Let’s see if Gil will experience the Midas touch as well.

Report: Big boost for Ange as truly ‘outstanding’ Tottenham star resumes training
Tottenham Hotspur can now focus on building on their great Premier League start after the break is finally over.
Monday night’s match between Fulham and Ange Postecoglou’s Spurs will take place at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London.
The Tottenham manager has reportedly got an injury boost involving Pape Matar Sarr, according to the Evening Standard.
During the international break, the 21-year-old Spurs midfielder made an appearance for Senegal. He made his debut in Monday’s 1-0 friendly victory over Cameroon.
Sarr completed 69 minutes of work before exiting. The Spurs player was reportedly seen wearing an ice pack on his foot following the game, according to The Standard.
The source did add, though, that Sarr “resumed training at Spurs on Wednesday.” This means that his fitness for the Fulham match is not a major concern.
Clubs and supporters are often worried about their great players being injured or becoming too worn out during the international break.
Prior to the start of the new season, Postecoglou cannot afford to lose another important midfielder. Due to a suspension, Yves Bissouma is currently unavailable.
The fact that Sarr doesn’t appear to be experiencing any injuries after the break is thus fantastic news. Hopefully, the ‘excellent’ midfielder will be able to play against the Cottagers.
Tottenham currently holds the first spot in the Premier League standings after eight games, with six victories and two draws.
The groundwork has been prepared by Postecoglou and his team for this season, and there is definitely potential for a very successful year.
