Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino is hopeful Erik Lamela will return to full training in October.
The winger is currently suffering with a hip injury which has kept him out of action for 11 months, despite initial thoughts that it would keep him out for just a matter of weeks.
There were even claims in Argentina he may not ever return from his long layoff.
But, Pochettino is hopeful Lamela will be back in full training in October as he looks to make his comeback.
"We are happy with Erik's rehab. We expect in early October he will join the team and start the possibility to train with the team," said Pochettino.
