Tottenham are boosted by the news that they can welcome back Eric Dier for their game against Manchester City.

The defender has been absent due to a muscular issue, and has been restricted to only two games since the turn of the year.

However, the Daily Mail suggests he is training on grass, and will be in full training for most of this week.

One blow for Spurs is that Oliver Skipp is not ready after a thigh injury, having suffered a setback.

He is likely to miss the City game, but may be back for their midweek clash against Burnley next week.
