A Tottenham Hotspur footballer who was involved in a minor car accident on Tuesday ahead of a European fixture is reportedly "fine".

Randal Kolo Muani, a forward for Tottenham, was involved in the incident on his way to the airport ahead of the Champions League clash against Eintracht Frankfurt.

Head coach Thomas Frank confirmed the incident and said both players are expected to be available for the match at Eintracht Frankfurt.

Mr Frank said: "Everyone else involved in that accident was fine.

"It was a tyre blowing up, so, they are a little bit delayed but they will land later tonight."

Photos shared on social media showed Mr Kolo Muani and his teammate Wilson Odobert standing beside a damaged black Ferrari.

Mr Odobert was reportedly in a separate vehicle but stopped to assist.

Both players travelled together to Germany.

Mr Frank said: "They're fine, it was on the way to the airport.

"I haven't spoken to them personally yet.

"The first message is that they are fine and nothing happened, as I said the first time.

"They will fly out later and I fully expect both to be available for tomorrow."

With 98 minutes played at the City Ground it seemed Liverpool were set to drop two crucial points in the Premier League title race but Darwin Nunez struck a last-gasp winner to secure a 1-0 win at Nottingham Forest on Saturday. It was the 18th time Liverpool have scored a winner beyond 90 minutes in the Premier League since Juergen Klopp took charge but few felt more important as the Reds maintained the relentless pressure at the top of the table. Klopp's side's eighth win in nine league games left them on 63 points from 27 games, four points ahead of champions Manchester City who host Manchester United on Sunday and five ahead of Arsenal who play Sheffield United on Monday.
