Tottenham will be without Destiny Udogie and Pedro Porro for Saturday’s visit of Wolves, but Giovani Lo Celso is available.
Manager Ange Postecoglou with therefore have to shake up his team selection at full-back.
A muscle injury for Porro and knock for Udogie will keep them out for short periods - the hope being that both will face Crystal Palace in two weeks’ time - while Lo Celso has shaken off a minor hamstring injury and could feature, most likely off the bench.
Emerson Royal has often deputised for Porro at right-back, but January signing Radu Dragusin could also come into the team for his first start.
Yves Bissouma, meanwhile, could start a Spurs game for the first time since December 15, having endured a stop-start couple of months with both suspension and international duty at the Africa Cup of Nations limiting his Tottenham game time.
Captain Heung-min Son should start after coming off the bench in his first game back after the Asian Cup.
Tottenham predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Vicario; Dragusin, Van de Ven, Romero, Davies; Bissouma, Sarr; Kulusevski, Maddison, Son; Richarlison
Injured: Forster, Udogie, Porro, Solomon, Sessegnon
Date and time: 3pm, Saturday February 17, 2024
Venue: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
