​Tottenham playmaker Lo Celso back after Brentford clash

Tottenham boss Antonio Conte has delivered an update on Giovani Lo Celso's injury situation.

The midfielder is one who Conte would like to rely on, but the all-action star missed his side's clash against Leeds United, while he was not in the team for the postponed game against Burnley either.

Conte spoke about Lo Celso during his pre-match press conference for Thursday's Premier League game against Brentford.

He said: "For sure it was a pity but Giovani's situation is much much better than Romero.

"My expectation is to see him the day after we play against Brentford. He's started to work on the pitch. And for sure Giovani is another player we need to try to exploit him. He's a good player and now I want to work with him."
