Xavi back from suspension ahead of Bournemouth clash

Mon 05 January 2026, 14:00|Tottenham Hotspur

Xavi Simons will be eligible to return to action on Wednesday night as we travel to AFC Bournemouth after he completed his three-match suspension.

The midfielder has missed each of our last three games (Crystal Palace, Brentford and Sunderland) after he was shown a red card in our defeat to Liverpool on 20 December.

That dismissal brought an automatic three-game suspension for the Dutchman but, now, having served that suspension, he has the chance to play at the Vitality Stadium this midweek.

Thomas Frank will provide a further team news update at his press conference this afternoon (Monday 5 January).
