Tottenham Hotspur manager Jose Mourinho has said his club have the worst injury problems in Europe after seeing top scorers Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son sidelined.

Mourinho spoke to reporters on Friday about his club's difficulties in attack ahead of an important Premier League match against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.

"The position is so, so, so specific and it's very difficult to find an adaptation for the striker position. If you lose four right-backs, you play [Oliver] Skipp or [Moussa] Sissoko right-back. If you lose centre backs you can play, [Eric] Dier or [Ben] Davies centre-back.
