Tottenham Hotspur will face Liverpool and Inter Milan in the coming days.

Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino has suggested to The Daily Mail that Dele Alli will miss the match against Inter Milan next week.

Spurs will take on Italian club Inter away from home at the Giuseppe Meazza in Milan in the Champions League next Tuesday evening.

The North London outfit will first face Liverpool at the Wembley Stadium in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.

Alli has been ruled out of the match against Liverpool due to injury, and Tottenham manager Pochettino has suggested that the 22-year-old England international striker will miss the Champions League match against Inter.

Pochettino told The Daily Mail: “Alli is a bit unlucky, he suffered an injury after 20 minutes against Spain.

“We are disappointed because we’re going to miss him for this game and possibly Inter Milan but it is not a big issue.”

Big miss

Alli is one of the best young players in Europe, and the Tottenham midfielder will be a massive miss against Liverpool.

Spurs could do with Alli’s energy, vision and link-up play with striker Harry Kane at Inter, and the North London outfit will miss the former Milton Keyes Dons star – who earns £55,000 per week as salary, according to spotrac.com – in Milan if indeed he fails to regain his fitness by then.
