Building fitness off bench
Bergvall featured off the bench in each of his last four appearances across all competitions, including two outings with Sweden against Ukraine and Poland.
Analysis: Bergvall is clearly past the ankle injury that had sidelined him, but he still has some ground to make up before regaining his full match sharpness after a lengthy spell on the sidelines. That said, with injuries piling up at Hotspur Way and new coach Roberto de Zerbi joining, the door is open for the Swede to work his way back into the starting lineup he occupied earlier in the season. Bergvall has contributed one goal and two assists across 18 Premier League appearances this campaign, and Spurs will need him firing on all cylinders as they push to steer clear of relegation down the stretch.
Pictured in team training
Bergvall (ankle) was spotted back on the training pitch with the team Tuesday, according to Matt Verri from The Standard.
Analysis: Bergvall missed around two months of action with an ankle injury but took a clear step forward Tuesday after being spotted back in team training with the squad. That is a big boost for Spurs, as he had locked down a regular starting role before the setback, though it remains unclear how new coach Igor Tudor plans to use him moving forward. He will likely need a few more sessions to get up to speed, making Wednesday's second leg clash against Atletico in the Champions League come too soon for the midfielder.
