Tottenham Hotspur team news: Injury, suspension list vs. RB Leipzig

Spurs injury, suspension list vs. RB Leipzig

Tottenham Hotspur welcome RB Leipzig to North London on Wednesday for the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie.

Last season's beaten finalists finished second in Group B to Bayern Munich to advance through to the knockout stages for the third year running.

Spurs have hit form domestically with three wins in a row and now focus turns back to UEFA's elite club competition, with Bundesliga high-flyers Leipzig also entering the game on the back of a victory.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Tottenham's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest.


Harry Kane

Status: Out Type of injury: Hamstring Possible return date: Unknown

Spurs will be without Harry Kane until April at the earliest due to a hamstring injury sustained against Southampton on New Year's Day. Jose Mourinho recently suggested that the England international will be back for the final two games of the season.


Moussa Sissoko

Status: Out Type of injury: Knee Possible return date: Unknown

Moussa Sissoko suffered a long-term injury in the same match as Kane, and he too will not return until the closing stages of the season.


Son Heung-min

Status: Out Type of injury: Arm Possible return date: Unknown

Son Heung-min is Tottenham's latest injury victim. The South Korea international injured his arm against Aston Villa last weekend and had to undergo surgery, which could keep him out for the rest of 2019-20.


Erik Lamela

Status: Minor doubt Type of injury: Groin Possible return date: February 19 (vs. RB Leipzig)

Erik Lamela missed the FA Cup replay against Southampton due to a muscular injury and was also absent for the win against Villa at the weekend. However, the Argentina international is expected to return to the matchday squad for Wednesday's match.


Juan Foyth

Status: Minor doubt Type of injury: Groin Possible return date: February 19 (vs. RB Leipzig)

Juan Foyth also missed the dramatic win at Villa Park due to an issue with his groin. The 22-year-old featured in three of Tottenham's group games and will be pushing for a recall here, fitness depending.
