Danny Rose is on course to return to full training before the end of April, Tottenham have confirmed.

Rose injured his knee in January's 0-0 draw against Sunderland and has already missed 11 fixtures for Mauricio Pochettino's side.

The England international has visited a specialist in an effort to overcome his medial knee ligament problem but remains a week or two away from resuming work with the rest of Tottenham's squad.

A club statement read: "Danny Rose is continuing with his rehab and is on track for a return to first team training towards the end of the month."

Spurs are hopeful Rose will be fit enough to feature against Arsenal on April 30 in what could be the final north London derby at White Hart Lane.

Ben Davies has deputised during Rose's absence but the Welshman has struggled to provide a similarly impressive attacking edge.

Meanwhile, Harry Kane is ahead of schedule in regards to a rehabilitation from an ankle ligament injury.

The striker is closing in on a return to fitness and could be involved in tomorrow's clash with Watford, which would represent a significant boost for Pochettino's side, who are seven points adrift of Premier League pacesetters Chelsea.
