Conte highlights Spurs transfer truth, Kane concern - 5 things spotted in Brentford vs Tottenham

Sessegnon returns

Tottenham's drab showing against Brighton & Hove Albion last Saturday resulted in Antonio Conte making a change to his XI to take on Brentford. Ryan Sessegnon was the man to come into the side as Sergio Reguilon dropped down to the bench, with the head coach revealing ahead of kick-off that the Spaniard is currently suffering with a groin problem.
