UEFA Super Cup Final: Spurs’ Predicted Lineup And Injury List Revealed

Spurs head to Italy looking to win their second trophy inside three months

Tottenham will hope to have Dominic Solanke back for the UEFA Super Cup against Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday night.

The Europa League champions take on the Champions League winners in Udine as Thomas Frank’s side look to go into the new Premier League season on a high.

It has been a frustrating summer for Solanke so far, with the striker playing in just one friendly at the start of pre-season before being sidelined with an ankle injury.

However, Solanke has been named in Spurs’ squad for the Super Cup after Frank suggested last week that he would “be available quite soon”.

Spurs could opt to be cautious with his fitness, though, which would likely mean Richarlison continuing up front.

Destiny Udogie is also in the travelling party despite his own injury concerns, but Luka Vuskovic has not made the cut.

Frank must find a way to bring some creativity to the midfield in the absence of Dejan Kulusevski and James Maddison.

Kulusevski is out for “a long time” with a serious knee injury sustained at the end of last season, while Maddison is set to miss the majority of the campaign after suffering an ACL injury.

Pape Matar Sarr started in front of Rodrigo Bentancur and Joao Palhinha in last week’s friendly defeat to Bayern Munich, but Lucas Bergvall could some into the side here.

Mohammed Kudus is set to keep his place on the right wing and the big decision for Frank comes on the opposite flank.

Brennan Johnson, Wilson Odobert and Mathys Tel are all pushing to start in Italy.

Tottenham predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Spence; Bentancur, Sarr; Kudus, Bergvall, Odobert; Richarlison

Doubts: Solanke, Udogie

Injured: Dragusin, Takai, Maddison, Kulusevski

Time and date: 8pm BST on Wednesday, August 13, 2025
