On August 26, London Football Network reported that Tottenham new player Yukio Takai will soon practice with the team.

Tottenham signed the 20-year-old Japanese international for £5 million as early as early July, bringing him from J League team Kawasaki forward to London. However, shortly after obtaining a work permit, Takai Yuki Death suffered from foot injuries and has not yet played in any game in the club robe (including pre-season friendly matches).

New coach Thomas Frank said during his trip to the club South Korea: "Unfortunately, Takai Yukita suffers from plantar fasciitis. The specific recovery cycle is not clear and may take several weeks."

During his trip to Tottenham South Korea, the Japanese central defender was left at the Tottenham base for recovery.

Social London Network has learned that the players have trained at the outdoor venue of Enfield Training Base, which indicates that they are expected to return to the joint training.

The 1.91-meter-tall defender is young but experienced. He has played 78 adult team games for the Kawasaki striker (including 57 of which J League), and played a key role in the club's victory in the Japanese Super Cup last year and was elected J League Youth Player of the Year.

As a core member of Kawasaki's striker's AFC final this year, Yukio Takai also has rich experience in the AFC Champions League. He made his first appearance in the Japanese adult national team after his 20th birthday and has played in four World Cup qualifiers. If it weren't for the adductal muscle injury in the Japanese national team, which was mainly composed of European League players in October last year, he would have played more.

Tottenham fans are looking forward to the central defender returning to training as soon as possible and returning to the pace. Given that he has completed half a season in Japan, the adaptation process may not be too long.
