Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Erik Lamela picked up an injury back in October.

Mauricio Pochettino has confirmed that Erik Lamela will come back to Tottenham Hotspur training tomorrow.

Lamela has been back in Rome for the past few months, as he attempts to come back from injury.

The Argentine winger hurt his hip back in October, and the injury was initially expected to be a minor one.

However, three months later, Lamela still has not been able to regain full fitness.

Tottenham's Erik Lamela in action

Pochettino admitted recently that he was concerned about Lamela’s failure to recover from the set back.

However, it seems that the 24-year-old is finally edging closer to making a comeback now – as he will rejoin Spurs training on Friday.

Lamela’s return to Tottenham will be a big boost, as he has the ability to strengthen their attacking options.

Spurs take on Wycombe Wanderers at the weekend in the FA Cup, but that match is likely to come too early for Lamela to feature.
