Tottenham return to training: Watch as squad head back to Hotspur Way amid coronavirus lockdown

Tottenham have on Tuesday returned to training during the coronavirus lockdown as clubs look to conclude the Premier League season.

Spurs have become the fourth top-flight team to get back to work, after London rivals Arsenal and West Ham returned to their London Colney and Rush Green bases just outside the capital and Brighton soon followed suit.

Members of Tottenham's first-team squad will have access to a limited number of pitches at Hotspur Way in Enfield for "individual running sessions on a strict rotational basis" to maintain social-distancing guidelines.

Players will have arrived in their training gear, and will depart in the same clothes.

A statement on Monday read: "No more than one player per pitch will be permitted at any one time to undertake on-pitch exercise, with only a restricted number of the squad coming to the Training Centre each day."

Spurs have three come under fire for breaching government guidelines, with Jose Mourinho first bringing Tanguy Ndombele for a solo session during lockdown, with Ryan Sessegnon and Davidson Sanchez on the same day going for a run together.

Last week, Serge Aurier and Moussa Sissoko issued a joint apology and pledged to make a donation to the NHS after training together.
