Notable exclusions are Ryan Mason and Alex Pritchard due to picking up injuries. As for Emmanuel Adebayor, Roberto Soldado, Aaron Lennon, Andros Townsend and Vlad Chiricheș all of them have been left off. It’s most likely that those five players didn’t make the trip due to being potential sales before the transfer window closes.
With their 25-man squad announced, Mauricio Pochettino is going to use this friendly to get his squad ready for August 8th against Manchester United.
