Ange Postecoglou is dealing with yet more new injuries for Tottenham’s visit to Everton in the Premier League today, with Dominic Solanke, Yves Bissouma and Brennan Johnson all now out.

Reports on Saturday night emerged that striker Solanke had been ruled out for the trip to Goodison Park after suffering a knee injury during training, and is now set for scans amid unconfirmed fears he faces weeks on the sidelines.

In his absence, captain Heung-min Son leads the line with Richarlison, formerly of Everton, only on the bench as James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski complete the attack.

Solanke’s absence comes after Johnson and Bissouma both picked up knocks during the midweek defeat to Arsenal.

With no Bissouma, teenager Archie Gray moves forward from centre-back into a more natural position in midfield, with the fit-again Ben Davies coming straight into defence after recovering from a hamstring strain that has kept him out for six weeks.

Mikey Moore is part of a very youthful Spurs bench but Postecoglou is likely to ease the youngster back in slowly.

Timo Werner is set for up to a month on the sidelines with a hamstring injury, while Rodrigo Bentancur (concussion), Micky van de Ven (hamstring), Cristian Romero (calf), Destiny Udogie (hamstring), Guglielmo Vicario (foot) and Wilson Odobert (hamstring) are also still out, along with Fraser Forster.

Tottenham XI: Kinsky, Porro, Dragusin, Davies, Spence, Sarr, Gray, Bergvall, Kulusevski, Maddison, Son

Subs: Austin, Reguilon, Hardy, Ajayi, Olusesi, Min-Hyeok, Moore, Richarlison, Lankshear
