JOSE MOURINHO says he will have a fully-fit Tottenham squad to choose from when the Premier League returns.

The Spurs boss revealed all of his crocked stars – including Harry Kane, Son Heung-min, Moussa Sissoko and Steven Bergwijn – have recovered from the injuries they had before the season was halted.

But he fears they will struggle to get back to their best when matches resume because of their extended spells on the sidelines.

He told Sky: “I cannot say in this moment they are ready to play because one thing is to recover from an injury, and another is to be ready to play football.

“In Harry’s case, I think for about five months he hasn’t played, but all of them are not injured any more.

“They are training, and training is what it is at the moment, training has a lot of limitations.

“We cannot compete, we cannot do one versus one, we have to keep a certain distance, we cannot compete.”

Kane and Sissoko have not played since getting injured in Tottenham’s 1-0 defeat at Southampton on New Year’s Day.

Son is back from completing mandatory military service in his native South Korea after recovering from a broken arm, which has kept him out since February.

January’s £27million signing Bergwijn was expected to miss the rest of the season with a knee injury he suffered shortly before football was halted on March 13 – three days after Spurs had been dumped out of the Champions League last 16 by RB Leipzig.

But Mourinho, whose side sit eighth in the Premier League table, said: “Harry Kane, Son, Bergwijn, Sissoko, all of them are fine.

“I think with a couple of weeks of normal training, when the authorities tell us we can train normally I think in a couple of weeks, the boys will be ready to play, of course not to the maximum of their potential, I think nobody can do that in this moment.

“But for us, of course, it is a great feeling, because we finished the period with that defeat at Leipzig, where we were really, really in trouble to have 11 players, including attacking players, and in this moment Erik Lamela, Son, Dele Alli, Harry Kane, Bergwijn, everybody is fit now.”
