Jose Mourinho has confirmed that Gareth Bale can play again for Tottenham when they take on Fulham on Thursday evening.
Enduring a stop-start campaign due to injury and fitness issues following his return on loan from Real Madrid, the attacker has really caught the eye over the past two weeks.
Impressing off the bench against West Ham before scoring a sublime goal in the Europa League tie against Wolfsberger AC, Bale then hit a double as Spurs hit Burnley for four in N17 on Sunday.
Given that Spurs now having another game to contend with in a hectic schedule for the club, Mourinho feels that his player can play again but he's not entirely sure if he will start or be on the bench.
"I think so. Starting or starting on the bench I don't know," he said when speaking to the media at his pre-match press conference.
"He's a very experienced player. Good reaction though."
Things are now starting to look up for Tottenham on the injury front after Mourinho claimed last Friday that none of his players were in the treatment room.
Giovani Lo Celso is back out on the training pitch at Hotspur Way with his teammates and his return to action could hand the team a much-needed boost as they eye a top-four finish.
So when exactly will the Argentine be back playing for Tottenham following his hamstring injury?
"Training with the team but a big injury," he added. "We're not going to risk yet. In fact we don't want to risk, we'll bring him to the team when he is OK.
"Maybe one or two more weeks. Everybody else OK."
