Tottenham Hotspur team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Burnley

Sports Mole rounds up all of Tottenham Hotspur's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their Premier League fixture with Burnley on Wednesday.

Tottenham Hotspur will endeavour to boost their bid for a Champions League place when they travel to Burnley for Wednesday evening's Premier League contest.

The Lilywhites came up trumps in a nail-biting 3-2 win over champions Manchester City on Saturday night, with Harry Kane clinching it with virtually the last kick - or header - of the game.

Antonio Conte's side have temporarily risen to seventh in the table after ending their three-game losing run but remain three points adrift of North London rivals Arsenal as the top-four race hots up.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Tottenham's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with the Clarets.


Japhet Tanganga

Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: February 26 (vs. Leeds United)

Japhet Tanganga has been struggling with a knee problem in recent weeks and was not ready to take on Man City, so the weekend's clash with Leeds United is a more realistic target for the defender's return.

Status: Out
Type of injury: Groin
Possible return date: February 26 (vs. Leeds United)

Oliver Skipp has joined Tanganga on the sidelines this month with a groin complaint, and while he is slowly on the mend, Wednesday's game will likely come too soon for the midfielder.


Sergio Reguilon

Status: Out
Type of injury: COVID-19
Possible return date: Unknown

Conte reported one positive COVID-19 case before the win over Man City, and Sergio Reguilon confirmed on social media that he was the affected player, with the left-back set to remain out of action this week.


Emerson Royal

Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Knock
Possible return date: February 23 (vs. Burnley)

Emerson Royal came off with a knock in the final 10 minutes of the win over Man City, but he is not thought to be nursing anything serious and ought to be fine for Wednesday.


TOTTENHAM'S SUSPENSION LIST

Tottenham have no players suspended for this match.
