James Maddison is on the bench for Tottenham as Everton visit in the Premier League this afternoon, but Pedro Porro and Destiny Udogie are absent from the squad.“Pedro Porro felt a small muscular problem, we have to see tomorrow if he’s available or not but in this moment I don’t want to take any risks. The same (with) Udogie,” the Spurs head coach said.“Pedro Porro and Udogie are similar players because one, Pedro played a World Cup, a long World Cup and we already knew after the World Cup it could be a difficult management for him.“For Udogie, last season (he) suffered many injuries, he played 60 minutes in Nottingham and we have to manage also Destiny in the best way we can.”Welcome return: James Maddison is available as Tottenham face EvertonGettyArchie Gray and Andy Robertson come in for Porro and Udogie, while Mateus Fernandes and Dominic Solanke replace substitutes Connor Gallagher and Mathys Tel. De Zerbi lamented the injury as “stupid”, owing to the innocuous nature of the incident, which is set to keep Mudryk out until after the international break.Xavi Simons and Wilson Odobert remain long-term absentees, while Dejan Kulusevski is continuing to struggle with a setback in his recovery from a serious knee injury.Kulusevski returned to full team training last week before suffering what De Zerbi described as a minor issue.The Swedish playmaker has not played in nearly a year-and-a-half, and De Zerbi revealed that the 26-year-old is yet to return to team training.Confirmed team newsTottenham XI: Kinsky; Gray, Van Hecke, Van de Ven, Robertson; Tonali, Bentancur, Fernandes; Savio, Solanke, MarmoushRead MoreSubs: Dubravka, Tosin, Senesi, Davies, Gallagher, Bergvall, Maddison, Kudus, TelEverton XI: Pickford, Maitland-Niles, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko, Armstrong, Garner, Johnson, Dewsbury-Hall, George, BarrySubs: Travers, King, Keane, O'Brien, Grealish, Alcaraz, Hackney, Dibling, GrahamInjured: Simons, Odobert, MudrykDoubt: Kulusevski, Porro, UdogieTime and date: 5:30pm BST on Saturday September 12, 2026Venue: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
