Report: Tottenham Hotspur’s Jose Mourinho has taken Son Heung-min out of his Europa League squad ahead of Maccabi Haifa clash

According to Football London, Tottenham Hotspur head coach Jose Mourinho has taken South Korean forward Son Heung-min out of his Europa League squad ahead of tonight’s play-offs against Maccabi Haifa. The 28-year-old is currently out injured having been withdrawn at half-time against Newcastle United on Sunday, and he is a huge doubt for Sunday’s trip to Manchester United and may not see action until after the international break. As a result, Mourinho decided to replace Son in the 25-man squad with Argentine goalkeeper Paulo Gazzaniga last night. Teams are allowed to make changes to their squad up until the night before a match during the qualifying stages of the Europa League.
