The Tottenham players have been spotted on the training pitches at Hotspur Way this afternoon as Thomas Frank prepares his side for their UEFA Champions League tie against Eintracht Frankfurt.
Attention swiftly turns to the Champions League for Tottenham Hotspur after their disappointing 2-2 draw against Burnley in the Premier League.
That draw did little to ease the pressure on Thomas Frank, who gave himself a bit of respite after his 2-0 win over Borussia Dortmund earlier last week in the Champions League.
The Dane will now be hoping to make it back-to-back wins in Europe as his side looks to cement their spot in the round of 16 through a top-eight finish in the Spurs boss’s debut season.
Tottenham players spotted in Champions League training amid injury crisis
With pressure building on Frank, the Dane was seen putting his Spurs players through their paces in Germany on Tuesday afternoon as preparations continued for the Champions League clash against Eintracht Frankfurt.
The two sides met last season in the Europa League, and it was Spurs who got the better of the German outfit 2-1 on aggregate, with a 1-0 victory on Frankfurt’s home turf at Deutsche Bank Park.
Frank will be hoping his side can pull off a similar trick as they face a Frankfurt side who have nothing to play for, with their Champions League fate sealed and no hope of progressing beyond the league phase.
Spurs remain stretched due to injuries and squad registration issues, leaving twelve players unavailable for this Champions League encounter.
Among those absent from training were worryingly Micky Van de Ven and Pedro Porro, both of whom feel like guaranteed starters against Frankfurt (George Sessions).
Cristian Romero was involved despite coming off with cramp against Burnley, while Joao Palhinha has made a return from injury to take part.
Antonin Kinsky and Randal Kolo Muani were also involved despite links away.
For supporters wondering how to watch Tottenham Hotspur versus Eintracht Frankfurt, the match is scheduled for Wednesday, January 27, with kick-off set for 8.00 pm BST.
The game will be broadcast live in the United Kingdom on Discovery+.
