Kevin Danso has expressed his optimism about the potential of his Tottenham teammates during his early weeks at the club, noting that, despite the team’s current struggles, he is convinced that Spurs will become a force to be reckoned with once their key players are back fit and firing on all cylinders.
Tottenham Looking to Salvage a Challenging Season
Tottenham Hotspur is currently enduring a difficult season, finding themselves languishing in the lower half of the Premier League table. With European qualification through the league now looking unlikely, Spurs’ hopes of securing silverware have also been dashed after being knocked out of both the FA Cup and the Carabao Cup. The focus has now shifted entirely to the Europa League, with the team hoping for a successful run in the competition. Manager Ange Postecoglou and his players are well aware that lifting the Europa League trophy at San Mames in May could dramatically shift the narrative around the club, reigniting hope among supporters and altering the perception of their season.
Despite the setbacks, Danso, who joined the club during the final days of the January transfer window, is encouraged by what he has observed at Hotspur Way. He believes the potential within the squad is clear, and with the return of key players, Spurs can look forward to better times ahead.
Danso’s Optimism for Spurs’ Future
While results on the pitch have been mixed since his arrival, Danso remains convinced that Tottenham has the necessary ingredients to turn things around. He sees a team that is full of character and determination, even if injuries have significantly impacted the squad’s performance in recent weeks.
“I can see the potential of the team, even though the results haven’t really shown that,” Danso shared in an interview with The Express. “We’ve got a lot of players missing, but the character is there, the willingness is there, and we can only be positive moving forward. With the situation we’re in now, I know it’s just a momentary thing and that better times are still to come.”
Danso’s comments reflect a deep sense of belief in the squad’s ability to recover and return to form. As key players gradually return to the fold, including some of the club’s standout stars who have been sidelined for significant periods, Danso is confident that Spurs will begin to climb the table and challenge for higher honors in the second half of the season.
Danso Reflects on His Own Form
Despite his optimism for the team as a whole, the 25-year-old defender has been candid about his own performances since joining Tottenham. Danso admitted that he has not yet reached his best form, acknowledging that adapting to a new club and environment requires time.
“I think in a maximum of one or two more games, I’ll be fully up to speed,” Danso said, reflecting on his own development since his move from French club Lens. “I’m still adjusting, but I’m confident that I’ll be at my best very soon.”
Although he has had his moments of struggle, Danso showcased his abilities in a standout performance against Manchester United, where he helped secure a valuable Premier League clean sheet on his full debut. That match served as a reminder of his quality and potential, and Tottenham fans will be hoping that this is just the beginning of what could be a strong run of form for the Austrian international.
Looking Ahead
As the season progresses, Tottenham’s defensive woes should ease with the anticipated return of center-backs Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero, who are expected to be back in action by March. Their return will undoubtedly add much-needed stability to the Spurs defense and provide more opportunities for players like Danso to shine.
In the meantime, the team’s focus remains firmly on the Europa League, where a deep run could transform the current season from one of disappointment to one of success. With the right mix of returning players and renewed confidence, there is a growing sense of optimism that Tottenham’s fortunes will improve significantly in the weeks ahead.
Danso’s early impressions of his new club indicate a strong belief that Tottenham’s future is bright, even if the road to recovery is still unfolding. With his confidence in the squad’s potential, the hope is that Spurs can soon rise to the challenges ahead and end the season on a high note.
