Tottenham Hotspur team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers

Spurs injury, suspension list vs. Wolves

Tottenham Hotspur will attempt to continue their unbeaten start to the new Premier League campaign when they face Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday afternoon.

Antonio Conte's side have come from behind to earn four points against Southampton and Chelsea since the beginning of the month, the North London outfit beginning matchday three in fourth position in the standings.

While Conte will be satisfied with the minimal occupants in the treatment room, there are still squad members who have been coping with fitness issues of late.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the team's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest against Bruno Lage's side.


Cristian Romero

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

Romero is said to have suffered a muscle injury, either towards the end of the game with Chelsea or in training earlier this week. Either way, the Argentine is likely to spend a number of weeks on the sidelines.


Oliver Skipp

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

Having suffered a hairline fracture to his heel, Oliver Skipp has been forced to miss the opening two fixtures. Conte has previously indicated that the Englishman may return to training before the end of the month, but the academy graduate remains ruled out for this contest.


Clement Lenglet

Status: Minor doubt Type of injury: Groin Possible return date: August 20 (vs. Wolves)

Clement Lenglet sustained what Conte described as a "minor issue" with his adductor last week, subsequently ruling the Frenchman out of the game with Chelsea. However, that was said to be a precaution, and the Barcelona loanee should feature among the replacements at the weekend.


TOTTENHAM HOSTPUR'S SUSPENSION LIST

While Spurs have no players suspended for Saturday's encounter, Conte will be absent from the dugout as a result of the red card that he received for his exchange with Thomas Tuchel at Stamford Bridge.
