TOTTENHAM’S TEAM NEWS
Though Spurs have strengthened their squad with the addition of mortgage signing Timo Werner, the lack of key man Son is an undoubted blow to supervisor Ange Postecoglou.
Additional worldwide call-ups to the Africa Cup of Nations will deprive him of Senegal’s Pape Sarr, a scorer within the reverse fixture in August, and Mali midfielder Yves Bissouma (who would have been suspended in any case).
James Maddison is edging nearer to a comeback however Cristian Romero, Ben Davies, Ivan Perisic, Alejo Veliz and Manor Solomon are set to overlook out.
Eric Dier, who’s reportedly set to hitch Bayern Munich on mortgage, and Giovani Lo Celso are doubts.
Micky van de Ven, Ryan Sessegnon and Rodrigo Bentancur have been all within the squad for the FA Cup win over Burnley final day trip.
