Rodrigo Bentancur’s return will give boss Postecoglou something to think about
Tottenham midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur is ahead of schedule and is pushing to return to first-team training after his knee injury that ruled him out for most of last season and all games so far this campaign.
Manager Ange Postecoglou had told the press the midfielder was eager to return even though he would not get back into the first team until November as Spurs look to ensure they handle the situation as best as they can.

The Spurs boss said: “He’s ticking all the boxes so far. He’s really keen. He came to see me yesterday wanting to train and within a minute I had one of the medical team running behind him to collar him and drag him out.
“He’s definitely keen and it’ll be great to get him back because his contribution when he first came to the club was outstanding. In many respects, he’ll be like another new signing for us, which is great, but we won’t rush it.
