"Djed Spence, meanwhile, is closing in on a return from a calf injury, with Frank admitting he could be in contention against United. So Micky is good, [he] trained today, the Spurs boss told reporters on Thursday. He is available for selection for Saturday. So it's good. Djed Spence is getting closer. It will be a little bit touch-and-go, but there is a good chance that he will be ready."
"Romero and Van de Ven will likely line up together for the first time since the central defensive pairing each scored to rescue a stoppage-time draw away to Burnley. Dominic Solanke is also available despite rolling his ankle in the closing stages against City. The England striker scored twice as Spurs came from two goals down to draw with Pep Guardiola's side last weekend."
Micky van de Ven returned to training and is available for selection for Saturday's trip to Manchester United. Kevin Danso remains sidelined with a hyper-extended toe. Djed Spence is nearing a return from a calf injury and could be in contention. Captain Cristian Romero has recovered from illness and is expected to pair with van de Ven. Dominic Solanke is available after rolling his ankle and scored twice in the comeback draw with Manchester City. Radu Dragusin, returning from an ACL, could keep his place if Frank uses a three-man defence. Joao Palhinha's assured, aggressive hybrid role complicates selection.
