James Maddison is available for Tottenham's FA Cup tie with Manchester City but boss Ange Postecoglou has yet to make a decision on whether he will start Friday's clash.
Maddison has not played for Spurs since he sustained ankle ligament damage in a 4-1 defeat to Chelsea on November 6.
England international Maddison flourished after he moved to the club in a £40million deal from Leicester last June, scoring three goals and providing six assists in 12 appearances, and he will return to action against FA Cup holders Man City.
Postecoglou revealed: "He's trained all week and he is fine.
"He is available and ready to start… when someone is available I assume they are ready to start.
"Whether they do or not depends on what I see with everyone else tomorrow and I usually make those decisions on game day.
"Like I said, the beauty of it is he's got through the week really well and is ready to go."
