According to The Evening Standard, Tottenham’s four South American internationals are expected to be be available for Sunday’s game against Newcastle after swiftly jetting back to the UK yesterday morning.
Cristian Romero and Giovani Lo Celso played in Argentina’s 1-0 win over Peru overnight, while Emerson Royal started for Brazil in their 4-1 win over Uruguay and Davinson Sanchez was an unused substitute during Colombia’ s 0-0 draw with Chile.
