Antonio Conte confirms double Tottenham injury doubt ahead of Nottingham Forest encounter

Antonio Conte has revealed that Emerson Royal and Ivan Perisic are injury doubts for Tottenham's Premier League clash against Nottingham Forest. A must-win game for the Lilywhites in the top-four race, the Spurs boss will have to switch both his wing-backs who started in the midweek draw against AC Milan if they are not fit to feature.

Confirming that Emerson did not take part in training on Friday, Conte indicated that Perisic was involved in the session at Hotspur Way but decisions will be taken over both on the day of the game. Hugo Lloris, Rodrigo Bentancur, Ryan Sessegnon and Yves Bissouma remain in the treatment room and are once again unavailable for Tottenham selection.

"Emerson didn't have training session today because he had a kick. Today he wasn’t available for the training session. Tomorrow morning we will try him to see if he is available at least for the bench at least to help us," explained Conte at his pre-match press conference.
