Kudus was in my head a crucial player, especially for the position. But we have to look forward. I think we have a lot of very good attackers.“Vicario is not ready for this game. I hope he can come back next week, but I don’t know yet. Bentancur is working with us, but not completely, but we have enough to fight, to play, to make points.”READ MORE: ‘I was in bed for six weeks’ – Mikey Moore lifts lid on major heart scare at Tottenham last seasonThe post Roberto De Zerbi reveals Tottenham injury update: ‘I saw Kudus as a crucial player’ appeared first on Spurs Web.
