Antonio Conte's first full season at Tottenham Hotspur kicks off with Saturday's Premier League opener against Southampton in North London.
The Lilywhites saw off the threat of Arsenal to clinch Champions League football last year, finishing fourth on the final day with a 5-0 thrashing of relegated Norwich City.
Conte has overseen victories over Team K-League and Rangers in pre-season, and Spurs also drew with Sevilla before suffering a 1-0 loss to Roma in the I-Tech Cup.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Tottenham's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with the Saints.

Oliver Skipp was being put through his paces in training after recovering from groin surgery but has now suffered a sickening foot laceration, which supposedly forced some of his teammates to turn away, and he is now reportedly set for at least two weeks on the sidelines after also sustaining a hairline fracture in his heel in the same incident.

Return date: August 14 (vs. Chelsea)
Richarlison was handed a one-game ban by the FA for picking up a flare and throwing it back into the crowd during Everton's win over Chelsea last term and will therefore play no part in Saturday's game.
