Thomas Frank played down any injury fears over Destiny Udogie after Tottenham's draw with Newcastle.

Spurs are now winless in five Premier League matches but there was more positivity after a better performance at St James' Park.

Frank's side twice came from behind to earn a point in a 2-2 draw, as Cristian Romero first levelled with a header and then equalised again deep in stoppage-time with an overhead kick.

Udogie played the full 90 minutes at left-back but was seen limping in the closing stages, by which point Spurs had already made all their available substitutions.

Udogie also appeared to be walking without any issues when stopping to speak to reporters in the mixed zone after the match.

That is positive news for Frank, who has had a stronger squad to choose from in recent matches after the easing of Spurs' injury problems.

Archie Gray, Lucas Bergvall and Mohammed Kudus were among those on the sidelines heading into the last international break but have all returned to play key roles in a busy run since.

Frank could also soon be boosted further by the return of Radu Dragusin and Kotai Takai, who have not featured competitively this season.

Dragusin has been out since February with an ACL injury but he has been training with the first team for several weeks.

The centre-back has also now played in two behind-closed-doors friendlies at Hotspur Way, featuring for 65 minutes against Dagenham & Redbridge on Tuesday.

Takai played the first-half in that match. Those were his first minutes since signing in the summer, having been on the sidelines first with plantar fasciitis and then a thigh injury.
