US EditionRomero Returns to Boost Spurs Ahead of Chelsea Clash
Tottenham will field key recovered players despite 16 injuries as they sit third in the Premier League, three points ahead of ninth-placed Chelsea, manager Thomas Frank said.
- On Friday, Tottenham Hotspur manager Thomas Frank confirmed Cristian Romero, Destiny Udogie and Wilson Odobert are available for selection for Saturday's Premier League home clash with Chelsea.
- The club's injury list includes Archie Gray's calf problem, Radu Dragusin's ACL recovery, and Dominic Solanke's ankle surgery sidelining him until after the international break.
- Recent head-to-head results favour Chelsea, who have won the last four meetings with Tottenham, and Spurs have only one win in their last 13 Premier League clashes.
- Frank faces a selection dilemma and says he'll accept responsibility for any setbacks, noting he relies on medical staff even as Romero, Udogie, Vicario, and Odobert return.
- After the League Cup exit on Wednesday, Spurs aim to rebound against Chelsea and hope to have Dejan Kulusevski back before the end of the year, with Frank stressing the home crowd's importance under the floodlights.
