Roberto De Zerbi urges Savinho to add goals and confirms James Maddison injury before Charlton cup tie | OneFootball

Roberto De Zerbi has told £85 million signing Savinho to raise his goals output and confirmed a shoulder injury for James Maddison before Wednesday's Carabao Cup tie against Charlton.

According to Goal.com, the Tottenham head coach said Savinho must complement his dribbling with more end product. He noted that leading wingers often score 10-15 a season and that the Brazilian needs to change habits to focus on assists and goals.

Maddison will miss the fixture with a small shoulder injury, while Mohammed Kudus remains unavailable.

Dominic Solanke is ready to start, providing a lift after Saturday's disappointing Premier League defeat to Brentford. Micky van de Ven and Pedro Porro will be named on the bench, alongside academy prospect Luca Williams-Barnett.

De Zerbi also underlined his belief in the club's pathway, saying academy players will get opportunities when they earn them.
