Tottenham Hotspur fans are overjoyed that Lucas Moura looks set to return to full fitness soon.

Mauricio Pochettino told Football.London that Moura could start for Spurs against Chelsea in the League Cup on Thursday evening.

And that will be a major boost for Tottenham, who are short of numbers up-front.

Pochettino’s men are without Harry Kane and Heung Min-Son, while Dele Alli looks set for a spell on the sidelines with injury now.

And Tottenham supporters are pleased to see that Moura could be back involved.

Moura’s inclusion in Tottenham’s team should make Pochettino’s men a greater attacking threat.

The Brazilian is blessed with great pace, and his direct approach can frighten defences.
