​Spurs defender Tanganga ruled out of Man Utd clash

Tottenham Hotspur defender Japhet Tanganga is set to miss out on their clash against Manchester United this week.

The London club resume Premier League action against their fellow top four rivals at home on Friday.

However, 21-year-old Tanganga, who was in form before the COVID-19 lockdown, will not be present with the rest of the team.

The Telegraph says he has suffered a stress fracture in his back, which he suffered the problem during training.

Serge Aurier is set to play at right back in Tanganga's absence.

Dele Alli is another who will be absent for the home side, as he is serving a one match ban for a racist social media post.
