The Brazilian made Tottenham’s injury problems even worse after being forced off in the second half against Rennes.

Moura had started the Europa Conference League clash in France before being replaced early on and missed the defeat at home to Chelsea.

The former Paris Saint-Germain star will be available against Arsenal though as he has fully recovered.

Steven Bergwijn

The Tottenham defender is a doubt for the trip to Wolves.

Dier was forced off after just 12 minutes of the clash with Crystal Palace before missing the contest with Rennes.

He returned to the side for the game against Chelsea like Son but could be rested this evening to avoid aggravating any injury.

Ryan Sessegnon

The 21-year-old also suffered an injury blow while away with the England under-21s.

Unfortunately for Sessegnon, he looks almost certain to spend a while on the sidelines.

Sessegnon is hoping for a big season with Spurs and will be desperate to get back to fitness as soon as possible.
