Solanke is injured and Postecoglou says another player from Spurs will not join the team.

Dominic Solanke, a promising young player, had his much-awaited debut for Tottenham in the recent match against Leicester. However, his time on the pitch was short-lived as manager Ange Postecoglou has confirmed that Solanke will not be able to play in their upcoming match against Newcastle due to an ankle injury.

Solanke's debut for Spurs was in the opening game of the Premier League season, where they drew 1-1 against Leicester City. Unfortunately, Solanke had to miss their last game, a 4-0 victory over Everton. Despite his absence, the team performed exceptionally well with goals from Yves Bissouma, Son Heung-min, and Cristian Romero.

Postecoglou would have preferred to have Solanke back in the lineup, but he understands the importance of caution when it comes to injuries. This weekend's game against Newcastle is just the beginning of a busy schedule for the team after the international break, so they want to ensure Solanke is fully recovered before he returns to the pitch.

In addition to Solanke, Tottenham will also be without Richarlison, who suffered an injury during training and will be out for a few weeks. Postecoglou revealed this news at a press conference on Friday, stating that they will miss both players in their upcoming game.

Fortunately, there is some positive news for Tottenham as Rodrigo Bentancur is available for selection again after recovering from a head injury he sustained during the match against Leicester. Postecoglou stated that he has passed all the necessary protocols and is feeling fit and ready to play.

Meanwhile, Newcastle have had a decent start to their Premier League campaign with a win and a draw in their first two games. They also managed to scrape through to the next round of the Carabao Cup after a narrow victory over Nottingham Forest. On the other hand, Tottenham may have an advantage as they have had a full week off to rest and prepare after their dominant win over Everton.
