Antonio Conte has confirmed who will replace Oliver Skipp in the Tottenham team ahead of the Leeds United clash.
Skipp will be ruled out of the squad following his suspension as he picked up 5 yellow cards.
Speaking at his
pre-match press conference today, the new Spurs boss confirmed that either Harry Winks or Tanguy Ndombele will replace the 21-year-old in the Leeds United clash.
"In this moment I have to proceed because Skippy he can't play, he was banned for one game. In the previous games we played with Skippy and Hojbjerg," said Conte.
"Also we have to see, I hope today to have Hojbjerg with the team, because he also was injured in the last week and didn't work.
"Then there is one between Winky and Tanguy Ndombele. (Laughs) Not many chances but we have to go."
Ndombele has featured in the Italian head-coach's first two games as Spurs boss but has had to make do with minutes off the bench.
"Yeah, I have seen that many managers struggle about this situation, about the position," he told football.london.
"For sure Tanguy has the quality. At the same time he has to understand that there is a team and he has to play into the team.
