Tottenham boss Mourinho admits Bale could see West Ham action

Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho admits Gareth Bale could see action against West Ham United.

The on-loan Real Madrid winger is in line for a second debut for Spurs.

Mourinho says Bale will "probably" play against West Ham on Sunday.

"He wanted to play since the day he arrived, but it was not possible," Mourinho said. "I am not going to tell you if he is going to play, what I can tell you is that he is working very well, he is working in the way he was not able to do for a long time.

"The last week, especially Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, the planning of the sessions, had a big focus on him and he is in pretty good condition."

Meanwhile, Harry Kane is fit to stat for Tottenham on Sunday after struggling with a muscle problem on international duty.

"He arrived not injured and in condition to start the match on Sunday and that is the most important thing for me," said Mourinho.

Eric Dier is a doubt after picking up an injury while on England duty.
