Spurs trio ready to play against Aston Villa

Tottenham have been handed a major fitness boost ahead of their clash with Aston Villa, with Pedro Porro, Sandro Tonali and James Maddison all available.

Spurs boss Roberto De Zerbi confirmed the trio are ready to be involved, although their fitness levels will be assessed before a decision is made over how much they can play.

“Porro, Tonali, Maddison, all are available to play,” De Zerbi said.

“We have to understand the situation in terms of physical condition but all of them are ready.”

Maddison has been working with the squad again after his injury lay-off, although De Zerbi stressed the midfielder still needs time to reach peak condition.

“James is working with the team the last 10 or 15 days. Maybe less than 15 days,” he added.

“He needs to be fit, to stay in a good condition.

“When he arrives in the best condition, he is very important for us.”
