Tottenham’s captain is not involved in this afternoon’s Premier League clash
Tottenham are without Heung-min Son and Wilson Odobert for Sunday’s Premier League clash with Wolves, though Ange Postecoglou has suggested both players should be fit for next week's Europa League quarter-final second leg against Eintracht Frankfurt.
Son and Odobert were present for Thursday night's 1-1 draw, with the club captain starting the game whilst the latter was an unused substitute in north London.
However, after picking up a knock against the Bundesliga outfit, Son will play no part at Molineux as he is one of six changes made by Postecoglou for the Premier League showdown.
"Sonny got a knock on his foot so we're being a bit cautious with him,” the Spurs boss said.
Postecoglou then explained Odobert's absence is simply down to managing the winger’s minutes as he eases him back in following a recent injury lay-off.
"Wilson, we're managing him at the moment," Postecoglou added. "Both should be available for Thursday."
Odobert is at the centre of controversy at Spurs after reports surfaced on social media ahead of the Europa League quarter-final first leg against Frankfurt on Thursday that he had been sent for scans over a tight hamstring.
This lead to Postecoglou revealing he is working to root out a mole inside the Tottenham camp who "continues to leak out information" about the club.
"Look, there is no doubt we have got a leak inside the club,” he said. “Somebody who continues to leak out information. They have all year. I don’t know why.
"It doesn’t help us. It just makes our job more difficult. We try really hard to keep things in-house like all clubs because we don’t want on game day opposition being aware of any sort of team selection, but we’ve got somebody within our camp who continually gives out information.
"We’ve narrowed it down, we’ve been looking at it for quite a while and kind of have a fair idea of where it is coming from.”
