‘We have to win seven or eight to get into Champions League’Spurs’ hopes boosted by key players returning from injuryHarry Kane thinks
Tottenham will have to win “seven or eight” of their remaining nine
Premier League games if they are to get in the
Champions League next season. Spurs’ hopes were in tatters before the season shut down because of the
Coronavirus pandemic but the three-month hiatus has given them a chance to resurrect their push to finish inside the top four.
Kane, Son Heung-min, Steven Bergwijn – who were all due to miss most of the rest of the season – and Moussa Sissoko are now fully fit for the proposed restart on 17 June. They are still up against it, sitting seven points off fourth-placed
Chelsea, but have key games against
Manchester United, Sheffield United,
Arsenal and Leicester, while they will hope that Manchester City’s appeal against their European ban is rejected.
