Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino has limited options to pick up-front at the weekend.

According to a report in the Guardian, Tottenham Hotspur’s Lucas Moura could recover from injury in time to play this weekend.

Tottenham are set to take on Fulham on Saturday and they could be without a recognised senior number nine.

Harry Kane is set to be out with injury, while Heung Min Son is away at the Asian Cup.

It leaves Moura likely to be Mauricio Pochettino’s first choice striker, but he is also out with injury currently.

Moura suffered a thigh injury last month, when Tottenham took on Tranmere in the FA Cup, but the 26-year-old flyer is close to a return now.

And the Guardian report that Moura could be back in action sooner than expected.

If Moura is fit to face Fulham it would be a major boost for Spurs, as they would surely carry more of an attacking threat with the former PSG man involved.
