Monday brought the return of the Tottenham players to the Hotspur Way pitches but under a new head coach in Thomas Frank.
The Dane has begun to work with those squad members who have returned to the Enfield training complex with grass work beginning on Monday after the early time spent with the sport science staff, going through testing in the gym and blood work. The group of remaining international players will return later this week, while those involved at the under-21 and under-19 European Championships will be back a few days later.
Frank's big coaching staff includes Justin Cochrane, Chris Haslam, Matt Wells, Andreas Georgson, Cameron Campbell, Stuart Lewis and goalkeeping coach Fabian Otte and his assistant Dean Brill as well as analyst Joe Newton and the new-look team will be getting to work with the Spurs players and feeding back information to the head coach about them all.
So which players will be fighting for their Tottenham futures at the club over the next couple of weeks? Here are five members of the squad who could be heading out of the door if they do not catch the eye. We're not going to include Bryan Gil or Alejo Veliz here because the feeling seems to be that their futures already lie elsewhere.
Yves Bissouma
The Mali international played his part in the final few Europa League matches of last season but ultimately it was a difficult campaign for Bissouma which began with those disciplinary issues.
The midfielder, who turned 29 next month, started just 16 Premier League games and is now in the final 12 months of his contract. It was perhaps notable that Frank mentioned Rodrigo Bentancur in his first interview and wanting to fit him into his team, even though the Uruguayan is in the same contract position, but there was no mention of Bissouma.
It feels like Bissouma is heading towards the exit door this summer unless he can save his Tottenham future with a pre-season that wows the new head coach.
Ashley Phillips
Ashley Phillips never really got a chance under Ange Postecoglou, or was not rated by the Australian and his coaching staff, but did have two impressive loan spells in the Championship at Plymouth and Stoke where he earned plenty of plaudits.
The centre-back turned 20 a couple of weeks ago and he will be fully aware that the arrival of Luka Vuskovic and the soon to join him Kota Takai is going to only block the path further to ever playing a competitive match for Tottenham.
Frank will want to have a proper look at the big centre-back but Phillips is going to need to have the pre-season to end all pre-seasons to ensure his Spurs career doesn't just become a temporary rest stop between loans before leaving permanently.
Manor Solomon
The winger, who turns 26 this month, wants to stay and impress Frank but for a player signed on a free, Tottenham will know they can get good value for him after a big season in the second flight.
Solomon helped Leeds win the Championship and scored the goal that sealed it and in all he registered 23 goal involvements in 41 matches for the Elland Road side. The issue for the Israel international is that the club-trained issues mean he's unlikely to get into the European squad so appearances could be thin on the ground for him this season if he were to stay.
He's going to be full of confidence after that season at loan though and he should look bright in pre-season. Returning later this week following his international exploits, Solomon needs to make the case to stay at the club otherwise the exit door beckons.
Dane Scarlett
Dane Scarlett has two years left on his contract and this feels like the season when the 21-year-old striker needs to show that all of the praise he's received from previous Spurs managers about his potential was justified.
With a couple of homegrown players likely to stick around because of those club-trained requirements in the Champions League, it could be a shoot-out between Scarlett and Will Lankshear to remain with Frank and the squad this coming campaign.
The one who impresses the most in pre-season is likely to get the nod. Last season it was Lankshear with the two strikers swapping halfway through the campaign with Scarlett returning and Lankshear heading to West Brom. A few years back, Brentford had a bid accepted for Lankshear before he went to Spurs from Sheffield United so Frank will know all about him and want to see how he's developed.
Alfie Devine
Alfie Devine clearly has talent and has impressed in each of the past two pre-seasons at Tottenham and he has also worked with Justin Cochrane in the England set-up which bodes well.
Coming off a good season with Vuskovic at Westerlo, the problem is will the midfielder, who turned 21 next month, ever break through at the club due to the sheer numbers in his position?
With two years left on his contract, Devine is probably due another deal, but would need to see a future for himself rather than just heading out on a third loan. He is a homegrown player for Spurs but sticking around purely for that might not be beneficial to his development. Frank will ultimately make the decision on what comes next for the England U20 international.
