Ange Postecoglou and James Maddison are holding their press conferences on Wednesday afternoon ahead of the Europa League semi-final first leg against Bodo/Glimt.

Tottenham face the Norwegian side on Thursday night looking to put everything into these two semi-final legs to ensure their season ends with something special rather than disappointment. It looks like they will have to do so without captain Son Heung-min with the South Korean absent from training with the group on Wednesday morning at Hotspur Way.

Postecoglou will speak about the skipper's foot injury and when he will be back as well as Lucas Bergvall's new contract, signed this week until 2031. The Australian could also discuss the club's efforts to get their Premier League game against Aston Villa moved next month in case Tottenham do reach the Europa League final in Bilbao.

Maddison is also set to hold a press conference in front of the assembled media to discuss the big match this week, his form this season and likely that painful hit he took in the quarter-final second leg win in Frankfurt to earn the penalty that Dominic Solanke scored to send Spurs through.

Our Tottenham correspondent Alasdair Gold is among those putting the questions to Postecoglou and Maddison. Scroll down for his updates from the press conferences at Hotspur Way.
