Giovani Lo Celso could feature against Red Star Belgrade

Tottenham could see the return of Giovani Lo Celso against Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League, according to Sky Sports.

The summer signing made a few substitute appearances this season before a hip injury took him out of the side.

The 23-year-old hasn’t played since the previous international break, but his return could be timely for Mauricio Pochettino’s side.

Tottenham have one point from their opening two Champions League games and have to beat Red Star to kick-start their campaign.

Spurs have looked off-colour this season but Lo Celso’s return could get the team going again. The 23-year-old was impressive for Real Betis last campaign and is seen as a long-term replacement for Christian Eriksen (h/t Sky Sports).

The youngster scored 14 goals and provided 5 assists for Betis last season and even played in the Copa America for Argentina.

Sessegnon not close to making debut

The other summer signing yet to start for us, Ryan Sessegnon, is still not ready for his debut (h/t Sky Sports).

The former Fulham star injured his hamstring for England’s youth team and might need a run in the U23s before getting first-team action (h/t Sky Sports).

A further delay will be frustrating for Sessegnon, who was one of the most talented players in the Championship.

His time with Fulham in the Premier League didn’t go too well, with the Cottagers getting relegated. Hopefully, he recovers from his problem soon and we get to see him in action.
