Three Tottenham players missing from Champions League training despite starting against Chelsea

The Tottenham players have been spotted on the training pitches at Hotspur Way this morning as Thomas Frank prepares his side for their UEFA Champions League tie against Copenhagen.

Tottenham Hotspur are set to welcome Danish champions Copenhagen to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in matchday four of the UEFA Champions League.

Spurs have managed just two wins on home soil this season and would be hoping they can turn that form around with a victory against the Danish outfit.

Copenhagen have been struggling in the Champions League, having not won any of their league phase encounters, sitting 32nd on the overall table. Tottenham, on the other hand, is in 15th place and is a single point off the automatic qualification spots in 8th.

Thomas Frank would hope his side can get back to winning ways after losing their London derby league fixture against Chelsea at the weekend, but they will face a Copenhagen side that managed a 3-2 victory in their last league outing.

Tottenham players spotted in training ahead of Copenhagen tie

Thomas Frank and his backroom staff were seen putting the Tottenham first-team squad through their paces at Hotspur Way as preparations continue for their cup tie against the Danish champions.

Several players were spotted in first-team training as Spurs gear up for the European encounter, while there were also some notable absentees.

Among those involved in the session were Guglielmo Vicario, Antonin Kinsky, Pedro Porro, Micky van de Ven, Kevin Danso, Radu Dragusin, Jun’ai Byfield, Rodrigo Bentancur, Pape Matar Sarr, Joao Palhinha, Xavi Simons, Richarlison, Mathys Tel, Brennan Johnson, Dane Scarlett, Richarlison, Wilson Odobert, Mohammed Kudus and Randal Kolo Muani.

Unfortunately for Tottenham, Lucas Bergvall was not spotted – likely due to concussion protocols after he was substituted early against Chelsea – and Djed Spence was also nowhere to be seen. Mohammed Kudus was also missing from the open training session following his efforts against the Blues.

For those wondering how to watch Tottenham vs Copenhagen, the match is scheduled for Tuesday, November 4, with kick-off set for 8:00 pm BST. The match will be broadcast live in the United Kingdom on TNT Sports 1.
