Harry Winks could still play for Tottenham Hotspur this season.

Tottenham Hotspur fans on Twitter are delighted by the news that Harry Winks could return from injury before the end of the season.

The 22-year-old Spurs graduate has only played three games in 2018 due to a recurring ankle injury.

The Standard reported earlier this month that Winks – still in Qatar in a bid to rectify the problem – has received an injection which is supposed to reduce the inflammation in the joint.

The same publication has now, however, reported that he could still play for Tottenham before the end of the season.

And fans of the North London club are delighted with that update:

It seems an unnecessary risk to play Winks again this season unless he is 100% fit. After losing to Manchester United in an FA Cup semi-final on Saturday, Mauricio Pochettino’s side don’t have a great deal left to play for this season and risking Winks might be a gamble.

Spurs are fourth in the Premier League and only five points ahead of Chelsea with four games to go, but is Winks, a central midfielder, going to get them over the line in terms of Champions League qualification?
