Son, Richarlison, Johnson, Bergvall - Tottenham injury news and return dates before West Ham

Ange Postecoglou has been handed some positive injury news over the international break before Tottenham return to action in the Premier League against West Ham. Spurs headed into the two-week pause following an extremely disappointing 3-2 defeat to Brighton - which ended their five-game winning run.

Club captain Son Heung-min was absent for the defeat on the south coast, but his injury lay-off looks set to end this weekend at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Richarlison and Wilson Odobert are other attackers that have been missing over the past few weeks, although one could return tomorrow with the other, potentially, to follow soon.

Postecoglou has been handed two positive updates over the international break, but he's also been handed the same number of worries. With that said, football.london has taken a look at the latest Spurs injury news before their impending London derby;

Son Heung-min

Injury: Hamstring.

Son picked up a hamstring injury in the Europa League win against Qarabag in late September. As a result of that injury, he missed games against Manchester United, Ferencvaros and Brighton.

He was also not called up to the South Korea squad for the games across the latest international break. However, he has since been spotted in full Tottenham training.

What Postecoglou has said: "Sonny has done some good work and he has trained with the group which is a real positive for us. He has worked hard this week. He's good to go."

Return date: West Ham (H) - Premier League - November 19.

Richarlison

Injury: Calf.

Richarlison has missed nearly two months with his calf injury, but could be back in the squad for the visit of West Ham on Saturday lunchtime.

What Postecoglou has said: "We've taken our time with [Richarlison] and we have taken time to build his fitness base up. He has worked hard, trimmed down and looks lean now. He's good to go now."

Return date: West Ham (H) - Premier League - November 19.

Wilson Odobert

Injury: Hamstring.

Odobert picked up a rather severe hamstring injury in the Carabao Cup win against Coventry in mid-September.

What Postecoglou has said: "Wilson doesn't look good, we are still waiting for it to settle down and get all the information but he will definitely be out for the next period."

Potential return date: Crystal Palace (A) - Premier League - October 27

Brennan Johnson

Injury: Unspecified.

Johnson was taken off at half-time of Wales' Nations League match against Iceland, with manager Craig Bellamy revealing it was because of a potential injury.

What Bellamy has said: "It was a precaution. He took a kick. He did feel something from impact so we'll get him checked out."

Return date: West Ham (H) - Premier League - November 19.
