Ange Postecoglou has admitted that Djed Spence was left “disappointed” by being left out of Tottenham’s 23-man squad for the Europa League group stage.
UEFA allow teams to name 25-man squads, but Spurs were restricted to 23 as they were unable to pick the required eight ‘locally-trained’ players. Tottenham only have two players which fit that criteria in Brandon Austin and Alfie Whiteman, so their squad size is reduced.
