Guglielmo Vicario has provided an update on his fitness following the arrival of a new goalkeeper at Tottenham Hotspur. The Lilywhites, who have struggled in the Italian shot-stopper's absence, announced Antonin Kinsky's transfer from SK Slavia Prague on Sunday morning.

By the afternoon, Vicario had issued an update on his injury, which he suffered during Spurs' victory against Manchester City in November. The 28-year-old, who had to undergo surgery on a fractured ankle, has missed eight games in the Premier League – but he could be back soon.

On his Instagram story, Vicario posted a video of himself walking around the club's training ground. The Italy international was kitted out in Tottenham gear and Adidas trainers. There was no sign of any medical strapping or assistance.

Last month, Postecoglou provided an update on Vicario, claiming he's 'pushing every boundary'. The Tottenham boss said: "He's going well, typical of Vic, he's pushing every boundary. Obviously, he's still a fair bit away, but whatever timeline that is, he will make sure he's back as quickly as possible.

"He's still very much around the group. We saw him last night, he's also training every day. He's so invested in what we're doing, helping the keepers, helping the whole group. He's one of the leaders and, yes, he's progressing well."

In Vicario's absence, Spurs have only managed to win once in the Premier League, losing five and drawing two. In December, the Tottenham boss revealed that he had no plans to sign a new goalkeeper in the January transfer window unless Fraser Forster suffered an injury.

"If we had another injury to a goalkeeper, then we would definitely have to sign someone," said Postecoglou ahead of Spurs' clash against Liverpool. "But I didn't leave the door open [to a signing] in terms of [the situation as it is currently]. Frase has done really well for us coming in. It's not easy.

"Any time a No2 goalkeeper comes in, it's always [difficult]. “He was disappointed with last night, but we’ve got to keep that in context of his overall performances. Burchy [Rob Burch, Spurs goalkeeper coach] will work with him. We've got no choice but to saddle up again on Sunday and go again."

Unfortunately for Forster, he suffered a knock in the new year, forcing Daniel Levy's hand. So, Tottenham signed Kinsky from SK Slavia Prague, tying the 21-year-old goalkeeper down to a contract which keeps him at the club until June 2031.

He'll be hoping to impress Postecoglou in the weeks – or months – leading up to Vicario's long-awaited return...
