Injured ward Tottenham to hire Argentina MF, who was on Loan
Coach Anji Postecoglou, who had been suffering from a long line of injury wards, said he would actively utilize Giovanni Lo Celso, which he had only used as a replacement for a while.
Coach Postecoglou attended a pre-match press conference against Aston Villa at the team's training ground, Hotspurway, outside London, England, on the 24th and opened up about whether to use Rossellso.
Tottenham will face Aston Villa in the 13th round of the 2023/24 season Premier League at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London at 11 p.m. on the 26th.
For Tottenham, which is losing two consecutive games, it is a game that can seek a turnaround after the A-match break.
Tottenham fell to fourth place (8 wins, 2 draws, 2 losses, 26 points) in the league after losing consecutive games to Chelsea and Wolverhampton.
On the contrary, Aston Villa have been on the rise with three wins, one draw and one loss in the last five games, except for the 0-2 defeat of the visiting shock of Nottingham Forest in the 10th round. It is already fifth (8 wins, 1 draw, 3 losses, 25 points) to chase Tottenham to the bottom.
Tottenham is currently in an injury ward. In particular, there was a lot of bleeding against Chelsea in the 10th round. Center back Mickey Pantherben suffered a hamstring injury, and offensive midfielder James Maddison suffered an ankle injury and is currently wearing a splint.
In addition, Tottenham's Hisharlisson, Ivan Perisic, Manor Solomon, Ryan Sessegnon and promising center back Ashley Phillips were also injured. It is known that Papematar Sardo is also in need of a test.
In the meantime, it is Rossellso who has been named as a replacement for Madison. He joined Tottenham in the summer of 2020, but was not utilized for a while. After failing to take the main spot for about a year and a half, he wanted time to play and chose to loan Villarreal in January 2022.
This was a stroke of God for the player himself. Rossellso announced a brilliant revival by leading Villarreal to the semifinals of the UEFA Champions League.
Villarreal also wanted Rossellso and the player spent the entire 2022/23 season on loan at Villarreal. He was unable to participate in the 2022 Qatar World Cup, which was held that year due to injury in early November, but he played 1,128 minutes in 22 league games this season, becoming the team's necessary offensive option.
Rossellso, who returned to Tottenham after last season, is now often seen as a replacement. He played three league games as a substitute this season and also appeared in the 12th round away game at Wolverhampton, playing for 14 minutes.
Several teams showed interest in Rossellso this season as well. The British media Evening Standard also said, "Barcelona, Atletico and Real Betis showed interest in Rossellso." But Tottenham are not expected to sell him.
"I've been watching him well even when he played for Tottenham and other clubs," Postecoglou said of Rossellso, adding, "I can confirm that he is a quality player. He's had a tough season. He had some injuries and couldn't have a proper season," he said.
"Roselso is one of the many players who have to have a good season." He is also a very creative player. He trains really hard on the team. "I will get the opportunity to play in the next few weeks and create influence," he said, expressing his intention to use the game in the future.
Rosselso helped Niklas Otamendi score the winning goal in the 2026 North and Central America (Canada, U.S., Mexico) World Cup South American qualifying match between Brazil and Argentina during the A match in November.
With Madison's return likely in January next year, Tottenham, which has to pass the boxing day without him, is expected to revive its destructive power in the offense if it knows how to use Rossellso well. 토토사이트
