Tottenham Hotspur manager Antonio Conte has revealed that Cristian Romero and Oliver Skipp are back in training.

Romero has missed Spurs’ last two games against Wolves and Nottingham Forest with an adductor issue.

Meanwhile, Skipp hasn’t played for Tottenham since pre-season due to a foot injury.

The ‘freak injury’ apparently left Tottenham players shaken and the youngster had to have stitches in his foot.

Spurs are next in action on Wednesday, when they host West Ham at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Ahead of the Premier League clash, Conte was able to share the “good sign” regarding Romero and Skipp.

Speaking at his pre-match press conference on Monday, the Spurs boss said: “Cristian Romero and Skippy, today they had a training session with us.

“For sure, we have to wait now, to see if they are completely recovered, but this is a good sign for us and for the players.”

Conte also had an update on Lucas Moura and Bryan Gil, who were both sidelined for the 2-0 win at the City Ground.

“Lucas has inflammation in his tendon,” the Tottenham manager continued. “I hope he recovers soon.

“For sure, when I was a player, I had a lot of pain in my tendon and you know very well that an inflamed tendon doesn’t finish in only one week, two weeks. We hope he’s with us soon.

“Gil is not available, but in two or three days he will start to work again.”

Spurs have enjoyed a fruitful summer on the transfer front and have backed that up with results on the pitch.

Tottenham have won three of their Premier League games so far as well as getting a draw against Chelsea.

Now, with Romero and Skipp on the mend, it hopefully won’t be long until they’re back to full fitness.

Romero has shown he’s world class, and Skipp is a high-calibre talent with huge potential.

Admittedly, Wednesday’s game might still be a bit early for them, but nonetheless, they’re on the right track.
