Oliver Skipp faces key Tottenham decision that could have major impact on Ange Postecoglou plan

It could be a very successful summer for Oliver Skipp as England Under-21s chase European Championship glory in Romania and Georgia. Topping Group C with three wins from three games, the Three Lions are now in the semi-finals of the competition and have the opportunity on Wednesday evening to make Saturday's showpiece finale.

Israel stand in their way of a place in the final but Lee Carsley's men did beat their semi-final opponents 2-0 when they met in the group stage. Skipp has featured in all four of their games so far, starting just the once in their final group encounter against Germany one week ago.

Once the tournament has come to a close, the Tottenham midfielder will be allowed some time off before returning to club duty and working under new boss Ange Postecoglou for the very first time. As Tottenham are due to depart for Australia on Friday, July 14 for the first leg of their pre-season tour, it remains to be seen when exactly Skipp will return and which games he will be involved in this summer.
