Dele Alli has been ruled out of Tottenham’s welcome of Crystal Palace with a hamstring injury.
The England international was the star man in Spurs’ 3-1 win over Real Madrid on Wednesday night, bagging a brace to land the WhoScored man of the match award.
Gareth Southgate had called the 21-year-old up to his latest England squad for meetings with Germany and Brazil later this month.
However, Alli is now expected to pull out of the England squad with his latest issue and is a doubt for Tottenham’s visit to Arsenal after the international break.
Alli joins Michel Vorm, Toby Alderweirled and Hugo Lloris on the sidelines, the latter of whom sustained knocks in recent days, with Spurs depleted for the welcome of Crystal Palace.
Paulo Gazzaniga comes into the make his Tottenham debut between the sticks for the home side, while Mamadou Sakho has recovered in time to return for Crystal Palace after he missed the 2-2 draw with West Ham.
