Spurs Gain Injury Boost After Villa Win

Tottenham’s 2-1 victory over Aston Villa lifted them out of the relegation zone and gave manager Roberto De Zerbi a boost as midfield star Rodrigo Bentancur and defender Micky van de Ven return from injury.

The 2-1 win over Aston Villa saw Spurs escape the relegation zone and gave De Zerbi a quiet moment of relief as centre‑midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur, who had been sidelined, returned to the squad. He is expected back for the Monday clash with Leeds, while defender Micky van de Ven also recovered from a late‑game injury. The double return is seen as a key boost for the club’s survival push as they face a decisive fixture next week. umafrika.club
