Erik Lamela and Danny Rose have been suffering with long-term injuries

Danny Rose and Erik Lamela have returned to Tottenham training ahead of their next Premier League clash against Bournemouth.

The pair began working with the first-team again earlier this week following long-term absences with serious injuries.

Left-back Rose has been out since January with a knee problem, but caused controversy at the club in the transfer window by criticising the clubs policy of buying players.

The England international subsequently apologised and boss Mauricio Pochettino insisted the issue had been resolved.

Lamela has been out for almost a year with a problem that required double hip surgery earlier this year.

He has not played for Spurs since the EFL Cup defeat at Liverpool on October 25, 2016, and, at one point, he needed to return to his former club Roma for treatment from his previous physio.

Spurs remain without midfielders Victor Wanyama and Mousa Dembele ahead of the Cherries' visit, with Pochettino's side third in the Premier League from their opening seven games.
