Harry Winks could feature for Tottenham this evening.
Tottenham’s Harry Winks
This evening could provide a big opportunity for Tottenham youngster Harry Winks as he hopes to play a part in their EFL Cup clash.
Winks, 20, has a strong chance of starting the fixture, The Independent report, having impressed head coach Mauricio Pochettino.

The youngster recently signed a new contract at the club, showing how much faith the hierarchy have in his ability to succeed.
Ahead of his potentially big night, a pal has attempted to bring him down a peg or two, joking with him about getting nutmegged in training by head coach Mauricio Pochettino.
The message was sent by Norwich City’s James Maddison, on loan at Aberdeen, who The Evening Standard reported in January was a top transfer target for Spurs, while at Coventry City.
Tottenham boss Pochettino can play a bit still, it should be noted, after all he is a former Argentina international.
Winks did not respond, perhaps too focused on this evening, and hoping to be the one putting defenders on the back foot when they face League One side Gillingham.
