The 69-year-old also revealed last year that he had recovered from Covid-19.

TOTTENHAM HAVE WISHED former player and manager Ossie Ardiles a speedy recovery following heart surgery.

Argentina international Ardiles made 311 appearances and scored 25 goals for Spurs between 1978 and 1988, helping the club win the FA Cup twice as well as the UEFA Cup.

The 69-year-old revealed last year he had recovered from Covid-19.

Spurs hope the fans’ favourite will soon be back to good health again following his latest issues.

“The Club would like to extend its best wishes to our Ambassador and legendary former player @osvaldooardiles, who successfully underwent heart surgery this week and is now recovering in hospital. Wishing you a speedy recovery, Ossie!”, a post on the official Tottenham Twitter feed read.

    @jl: Spot on. Was isolated among massive vikings and the ball never came to him to impress. Robinson on the other hand received the ball plenty but always seemed to take the wrong option either delaying in possession, missing great runs from teammates or just glory hunting.

    @John Mc Glynn: I totally agree- they need to move on from Robinson. Rather they play some like Ferguson with the hope he can get a loan move in January.

    I think Ireland should have made more use of the ball in behind while Norway played a reasonably high line in the first half, but between Obafemi and the midfielders, either the run or the pass wasn’t made.
