He told Sportskeeda: “Tottenham have turned it around in recent weeks and have got some key players back from injuries, but Bournemouth are absolutely flying at the moment, making this one of the most exciting games of the Premier League weekend. In fact, this is a bit of a nightmare game for Tottenham, as this is the worst time to face the Cherries.
“Cristian Romero is out for a month and Micky van de Ven is yet to return from his injury, so Ange Postecoglou’s side might struggle at the back against an in-form Dominik Solanke. He has really come into his own and his confidence is sky-high at the moment, but I think interested clubs might wait until the end of the season to take a punt on him.
“He’s been around for a while and has finally made his mark in the Premier League, so I’m really happen for him.”
