– “For sure he’s out. He felt something in his calf and he won’t be available,” said Spurs manager Antonio Conte.

– “I think he needs a bit of time to recover. It’s a pity because we are talking about a player who gives us a lot of quality but is also strong and improves our intensity.

– “He will have an MRI to understand it tomorrow, we hope it is not serious.”

– Dejan Kulusevski missed the win over Everton with a hamstring injury but Lucas Moura made his first Premier League appearance since August as a substitute, having suffered a tendon injury.
