Alex Morgan’s Tottenham debut won’t last for a few weeks, with the US forward claiming a setback prevented him from being fit to play against Arsenal in the Women’s Super League derby north of London Sunday

But Morgan, who gave birth to Charlie Elena Carrasco in May, hasn’t played since 2019
‘I can’t wait to be on the pitch with this team in the coming weeks. I can’t wait’

They suffered defeats to Manchester United, Manchester City and Everton and claimed a point against compatriots West Ham
