Tottenham No2 Stellini: We trust Forster

Tottenham assistant head coach Christian Stellini once again spoke to the media ahead of their next Premier League game.

As Spurs prepare to take on Leicester City at the weekend, Stellini fielded questions about the injury to goalkeeper Hugo Lloris.

He confirmed that backup shot stopper Fraser Forster will be in goal for Spurs in the coming weeks.

Stellini stated: “Everyone is available for the next game.

“We are all disappointed about Hugo and his injury. However, we have a good experienced goalkeeper [in] Fraser Forster with great experience in the Premier League and Champions League.

“We have a tough five weeks in front of us.

“We trust in Fraser and we are happy with him in the squad. We say to Hugo: 'See you soon'. He needs a good recovery. He needs maybe between five and seven weeks to be back with us."
