Thomas Frank has ruled one player out of Tottenham's squad for the opening Premier League game of the season against Burnley on Saturday.
A number of players are sidelined, with James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski and Radu Dragusin on the long-term injured list, but Frank will be missing another player from the Premier League opener at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Destiny Udogie has been struggling with a knee injury, having missed the club's pre-season tour of Asia. He had been in the squad to facec Luton Town in pre-season but was removed from the squad list after picking up an injury in the warm-up.
And the Italian is not fit enough for the start of the Premier League campaign.
Speaking in his pre-match press conference, Frank said: "Every player who was available is available for the team. Destiny is progressing but it's too early for him to be involved in the squad."
Tottenham go into their Premier League opener with a competitive match already under their belt, having played Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Super Cup final on Wednesday night.
Spurs produced a spirited performance against the Champions League winners and were within minutes of lifting another trophy, only for two late goals to send the contest into penalties, which PSG won 4-3.
It was a demanding match and Frank has oepned up on the possibility of changing things up when it comes to personnel as a result of that clash.
He added: "Of course there were physical demands in every area, in particular the heat was high. The players are very professional and they've recovered well. I can freshen up, whether that is from the start or during the game. I'm a big believer that it's the third game more than the second one that's important in that respect."
