BREAKING: Thomas Frank delivers Tottenham injury update as one player ruled out vs Burnley

Thomas Frank has ruled one player out of Tottenham's squad for the opening Premier League game of the season against Burnley on Saturday.

A number of players are sidelined, with James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski and Radu Dragusin on the long-term injured list, but Frank will be missing another player from the Premier League opener at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Destiny Udogie has been struggling with a knee injury, having missed the club's pre-season tour of Asia. He had been in the squad to facec Luton Town in pre-season but was removed from the squad list after picking up an injury in the warm-up.

And the Italian is not fit enough for the start of the Premier League campaign.

Speaking in his pre-match press conference, Frank said: "Every player who was available is available for the team. Destiny is progressing but it's too early for him to be involved in the squad."
