Ryan Mason to be visited by Mauricio Pochettino and his Tottenham players in hospital on Thursday as former boss says: 'He will always be special for me'

Mauricio Pochettino and his Tottenham players will be Ryan Mason's latest hospital bedside visitors on Thursday as the Hull City midfielder continues to recover after suffering a fractured skull.

Spurs stars sent their former team-mate Mason, 25, a video message from their recent winter training camp in Barcelona and will now make a personal visit having returned to London.

Mason remains at Paddington's St Mary's Hospital after his horror clash of heads with Chelsea's Gary Cahill on Sunday, though he is said to be making 'excellent progress'.
