James Maddison, Tottenham’s creative force may make his long-awaited return to action after nearly three months out due to an ankle injury sustained in November’s defeat to Chelsea. With key players like Son Heung-min, Yves Bissouma and Pape Matar Sarr absent due to international commitments, Maddison’s potential comeback is eagerly anticipated by Spurs fans. Despite the excitement surrounding Maddison’s return to full team training, manager Ange Postecoglou has remained tight-lipped about his availability for the upcoming FA Cup clash against Manchester City. The handling of Maddison’s return differs from previous cases like Rodrigo Bentancur and Cristian Romero, whose early comebacks were less publicized. While Maddison’s return could provide a morale boost for Tottenham, the uncertainty surrounding his role in the upcoming fixture against City adds intrigue to the situation.
