Brennan Johnson and James Maddison both sustained injuries during Tottenham’s draw with Arsenal.
James Maddison is feeling ‘positive’ about his knee injury ahead of Tottenham Hotspur’s meeting against Liverpool this weekend (17.30 BST).
The Reds make the trip to the capital seeking for a sixth successive Premier League victory. Despite being in second place in the standings, they will face Tottenham in their most difficult test yet. Since Ange Postecoglou was appointed manager in the summer, Spurs have had a strong start. They have 14 points after six games, which puts them two spots behind Liverpool.
After joining Tottenham Hotspur for £40 million in the summer season from Leicester City, Maddison has made an incredible start to life at the stadium, registering two goals and four assists in seven appearances. The offensive midfielder injured his knee last Sunday during Tottenham’s 2-2 draw with Arsenal in the north London derby. Before being replaced, he continued for seven minutes.
Tottenham will undoubtedly be clamoring for Maddison to be available and play football.According to sources from London, the English international felt “positive” about the situation.
Brennan Johnson also left the field holding his left leg against Arsenal in the 62nd minute. The £45 million acquisition from Nottingham Forest is said to have tight hamstrings rather than a more serious problem. A scan was not necessary, and Johnson will be watched before this weekend, according to football.london.
