Kyle Walker makes Spurs playing return

Kyle Walker is continuing his recovery from surgery at Tottenham.

Walker played 67 minutes for Tottenham's Under-21 side last night as he closes in on a first-team return.

The England defender had a pelvic operation in the summer and has not played a competitive game since the Europa League match with Benfica last March. The 24-year-old is desperate to return to action but, mindful of the severity of the original injury, Pochettino does not want to rush him back.

Walker helped Spurs beat their Manchester City counterparts 2-1.
