Eidevall provides update on Miedema and more

Ahead of Sunday's north London derby, Jonas Eidevall has revealed that Vivianne Miedema is to undergo minor knee surgery.

The Dutch forward, who recently joined up with the Netherlands for the February international break, will be sidelined for several weeks.

"We will have an update on [her fitness] after the surgery and when we see how she's progressing," said Eidevall in his pre-Tottenham Hotspur press conference, as he confirmed that Miedema will not be available for the fixture.

England captain Leah Williamson recently withdrew from the Lionesses' camp with a minor hamstring injury, but our head coach said there was a possibility she would see minutes at the weekend.
