Antonio Conte explains Ivan Perisic selection for Tottenham vs Wolves as Ryan Sessegnon on bench

Tottenham are taking on Wolves in the Premier League today and Antonio Conte has named a different side from the one that started the first two games of the season. Conte had named the same team for the games with Southampton and Chelsea, but that is not the case against Wolves.

The Italian has made two changes, although one of those was enforced, with Cristian Romero out with injury. The Argentine was replaced in the starting lineup by Colombian Davinson Sanchez. It is the other change that was an interesting one, however.

Ryan Sessegnon has been dropped to the bench, with the experienced Ivan Perisic coming in for his first Premier League start since joining on a free transfer from Inter Milan this summer. Sessegnon did usurp Sergio Reguilon as the first choice last season and looked to have Antonio Conte's backing this season too.
