Andros Townsend 'back in contention at Tottenham Hotspur following axe'

Tottenham Hotspur winger Andros Townsend is reportedly back in contention for manager Mauricio Pochettino after being dropped from the squad for rowing with staff.

Tottenham Hotspur winger Andros Townsend is reportedly back in contention for manager Mauricio Pochettino after being axed from last week's matchday squads.

The 24-year-old was left out of the squad for games against Anderlecht and Arsenal after arguing with the club's fitness coach Nathan Gardiner following Spurs' 3-1 win over Aston Villa.

Questions over Townsend's long-term future emerged following the axe, but according to The Mirror, the England player is likely to be on the bench for Tottenham's match against West Ham United after the international break.

It is believed that Townsend, who apologised to the club for his behaviour, still has a future at White Hart Lane.
