Mourinho reveals how many first-team stars he has left at home for Europa League tie

Tottenham Hotspur are set to play Bulgarian side Lokomotiv Plovdiv in the Europa League second-round qualifier tomorrow night, away from home.

After a match against Everton in the Premier League on Sunday and a hectic schedule on the horizon, Mourinho must make some key squad decisions.

In his pre-match press conference ahead of the game in Bulgaria, the Spurs head coach reportedly revealed that he would be leaving eight first-team players at home (Football London). However, Mourinho refused to reveal who would not be making the trip.

We already know that Jose has confirmed that Harry Kane will play a part on Thursday, with Ndombele not fit to start but part of the squad. Eric Dier was also involved in the press conference, hinting that he will travel with the team (Football London).

Spurs Web Opinion:

If I had to make some educated guessed, I would assume that the following eight players are being left at home: Hugo Lloris, Toby Alderweireld, Harry Winks, Heung-min Son, Lucas Moura, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Matt Doherty, and Dele Alli.
