Team news | Ange's latest on Sonny | OneFootball

Ange Postecoglou said 'rest is going to be as important as anything else' as Heung-Min Son fights to overcome a nagging foot injury.

The skipper has missed our last two games against Wolves and Eintracht Frankfurt. Indeed, he didn't travel out with the squad to Germany on Wednesday for Thursday night's UEFA Europa League quarter-final, second leg at Deutsche Bank Park.

Forest are next up in the Premier League as we return to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Monday evening (8pm UK).

Speaking to the media at Hotspur Way on Saturday morning, Ange confirmed Sonny would still be out, and was asked how long the issue might keep him out of action.

"He's been dealing with a foot problem for a while, so now is as good a time as any to give him the right time to to get over it," said Ange. "He'll definitely miss Monday.

"It's been something he's been dealing with for a little while and it got to the point where not only it wasn't improving, but it was deteriorating, and it's one of these things where rest is going to be as important as anything else with that kind of injury. So, we'll give him that time. Sonny is the kind of guy who always wants to train, so we'll put him on ice for the next few days and see how he responds to that."
