The second international break is already upon us, meaning a host of Tottenham Hotspur players will set off around the world with their respective national teams.
Head coach Nuno Espirito Santo will be looking to avoid the headaches experienced throughout the last break, which forced Giovani Lo Celso, Cristian Romero and Davinson Sanchez to be absent for 10 days while they were quarantining from their return from red-list countries in South America.
The trio, though, along with the addition of Brazilian full-back Emerson Royal, will be allowed to train and play on their return to the UK providing they are fully vaccinated, the Government announced on Friday.
Nuno will also be hoping to avoid unwanted injury setbacks which a number of his stars endured over the international break last month, after suffering a dip in Premier League form.
With the action set to kick off early during this week, here is a roundup of the Tottenham players on international duty and who they will be up against.
