A day after Tottenham beat MK Dons in their first pre-season friendly of the summer, the club have confirmed the squad that will travel to Down Under for their 2026 pre-season tour.

Tottenham have now been in pre-season training for nearly two weeks, with some of the players who were at the World Cup linking up with the squad over the last few days.

We have seen new signings Andy Robertson and Jan Paul van Hecke in training over recent days, alongside others who were at the World Cup such as Lucas Bergvall and Micky van de Ven.

Most of the recent returnees were not in action in Tottenham’s behind-closed-doors friendly against MK Dons, with Mateus Fernandes’ sensational long-range volley helping the Lilywhites run out 1-0 winners.
