Antonio Conte has ruled out Tottenham winger Lucas Moura for both Sporting and Leicester City clash.
Tottenham will take on Sporting Lisbon away from home in Portugal in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday evening, and will then face Leicester City at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the Premier League on Saturday evening.
Conte has said that Brazil international forward Lucas Moura will not play against either Sporting or Leicester, adding that he will be back in action only after the international break.
Speaking in press conference this evening ahead of Sporting clash, Antonio Conte revealed that Lucas was the only absentee through injury.
“Only Lucas Moura is still out. His recovery is going well but I think we’ll see him after the international break. The others are all available.” Conte said.
Interestingly, Spurs’ first match after the international break is against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium in the North London derby.
Tottenham will hope to continue their brilliant start to the season with a second straight win when they take on Sporting Lisbon in match week two of the Champions League.
