Dan Kilpatrick of the London Evening Standard reports that Davinson Sanchez’s absence from the Tottenham squad to face RB Leipzig tonight is because of a “slight knock”.
Teenage rookie Malachi Fagan-Walcott has been drafted into the Champions League 18 as extra defensive cover, with Ben Davies again injured and Juan Foyth seemingly out of favour.

Thankfully it doesn’t sound as though Sanchez’s issue is serious enough to add him to our list of long-term absentees.
And a couple of weeks out of the team may actually do him some good as his performances of late have been pretty shaky.
