EPL: Conte says defender Clement Lenglet won’t be available for Tottenham against Chelsea on Sunday
Tottenham Hotspur boss, Antonio Conte, has revealed that his team will be without defender Clement Lenglet when they face Chelsea in a Premier League tie on Sunday at Stamford Bridge.
Conte said Lenglet had a little problem of fatigue ahead of Tottenham’s clash with Chelsea.
The Italian said this on Friday during his pre-match press conference while providing an injury update on his squad.
Tottenham head to the game after beating Southampton 4-1 in their previous Premier League tie last weekend.
“About injuries, a little problem with Clement Lenglet. I don’t think he’s available for the game against Chelsea. He had a little problem. Skipp, I think a couple of weeks.
“[With Lenglet] a little problem of fatigue. He’s a bit tired in his abductor, in the muscle. Nothing serious but only precaution, but not good to take a stupid risk. He’s had a training session apart, but I think that will be good for him.
