Ajax coach reveals key injury doubt ahead of Champions League semi-final with Spurs

Ajax coach Erik Ten Hag has revealed that David Neres is an injury doubt ahead of his side's Champions League semi-final second-leg against Tottenham Hotspur tomorrow night.

The Dutch giants hold a 1-0 lead from the first-leg at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium a week ago after Donny van de Beek's struck after just 15 minutes.

But Hag's side, who have overcome Real Madrid and Juventus in the knockout rounds to make into the last four, are expected to be sweating on the fitness of Neres ahead of the game.

"I think so. Perhaps a small problem with David [Neres]," Hag said when asked if he had any injury doubts in his pre-match press conference.

"He'll be training. We expect him to be able to play but a small question mark"

The 22-year-old, who has scored 12 times this season, is one of the rising stars of Hag's side - and is reportedly attracting the attention of a host of European clubs, with Spurs' Premier League rivals Liverpool and Manchester United among those reportedly monitoring the forward.
