Tottenham youngster Bryan Gil has come ‘out of hell’ after returning from ‘a five-month absence in the win over Crystal Palace.
That’s according to AS, who cover the player today and how ‘Spain celebrates’ the return of the winger after a long injury layoff.
They cover how Gil featured for one minute in the 2-1 win over Crystal Palace on Friday, his first appearance for Tottenham this season.
That brought an end to a long lay off for the youngster, who had been in ‘agony’ due to injuries after a loan spell at Sevilla last season.
His last appearance was their Europa League win over Roma, with him and Tottenham making the decision in the summer for him to undergo surgery on his pubic bone.
That saw him spend five months on the sidelines, but he’s now returned and he, Spain and Tottenham are all now celebrating.
What role he now has to play for Spurs moving forwards remains to be seen but AS say manager Ange Postecoglou ‘likes him’ and refused to give the green light to a new loan deal in the summer.
That would suggest he has a plan for the player and that’s backed up by the face he has show how to ‘wait patiently’ to use him and not rush him back.
The belief is that Gil won’t be a ‘superfluous’ part of the squad by any means and will have a role to play in a ‘resurgent’ Tottenham team currently sitting top of the Premier League.
