Juan Foyth has been left out of Tottenham's Champions League squad again.
The 20-year-old Argentinian centre-back was omitted for the knockout stages of last season's competition after Spurs signed Lucas Moura in January.
Foyth - a 2017 summer-signing from Estudiantes - was initially in last season's group stage squad and boss Mauricio Pochettino admitted it was a "very painful" decision to leave him out of subsequent games. Foyth, who was signed as a prospect for the future, does not qualify for Tottenham's B list for the Champions League group stage because he has not yet been at the club for two years.
Whilst I didn't expect Foyth to play in the CL, it pretty much relegates him to the EFL Cup only until January. That's unless Poch decides to start integrating him into the Premiership team and rest one of our 3 senior centre halves or resist the temptation to put Dier back in defence.
Could be another quiet season for our young, talented centre half !!!
