Tottenham vs Charlton LIVE: Team news, line-ups and more from Carabao Cup second round

Just before we find out the line-ups for tonight’s match let’s here the thoughts of Charlton’s boss on how the transfer window has gone for his team.

“I am delighted,” he said od Tyreece Campbell’s new deal.

“This window has been significantly important in that we needed to improve in it, alongside that it was really important that we kept the players that were exposed and nearing the end of their contract.

“We have Lloyd Jones down, and we have TC down and hopefully we will be able to unleash a bit more good news as well.”

Spurs’ new signing really does have belief that he joined an upcoming side.

Here’s a bit more of Savio’s insight from his announcement as a new Tottenham player.

“Tottenham has everything. They have one of the best managers in the world. They have the best training ground in the world,” he said.

“They have the best stadium in the world. Whenever I came to play against Tottenham here, I always told my representative about the club. When he said that the club was interested in me, I was very happy. As I said, I’ve always wanted to be here now.

“I want to reach the top with this club structure, in training, stadium and with one of the best coaches in the world, I think we can reach the top.

“With my colleagues too. We can compete for the Premier League, reach the Champions League… and so it goes, with a lot of humility.”

Savio joins up with Tottenham from Manchester City were he found getting consistent gametime a struggle.

“It took me a while, but I’m here,” he revealed after making the move to north London.

“I’m very happy. I think everyone in my family knows that when Tottenham looked for me, I always wanted to be here.

“Now I’m here, I’m very happy, my family is happy, that’s what matters. I just have to thank God for this wonderful opportunity.”

Formerly known as Savinho, Tottenham’s new signing Savio could be in line to start tonight.

De Zerbi did not confirm whether the winger would or wouldn’t play but he did that that he was pleased by the signing and that Savio has a ‘big future’ ahead of him at Spurs.

“In terms of one-to-one, he’s one of the best players,” De Zerbi explained.

“He can play in the right side, in the left side. I know him from a long time, in Brighton, I spoke with him before he went to City.

“He’s a big player for us, a big signing.”

Roberto De Zerbi provided some updates ahead of this evening’s clash with Charlton and spoke about a few of his players including captain Micky van de Ven.

“[Micky] Van de Ven comes on the bench, Pedro Porro comes on the bench,” De Zerbi said of two of his star men.

“[Dominic] Solanke is available to play. I’m glad to have Pedro Porro inside and Micky van de Ven inside of the squad.”

Of players who are doubts De Zerbi added: “[Mohammed] Kudus is not ready yet and [James] Maddison suffered a small injury in the shoulder.”

Savinho has completed his £85m move from Tottenham to Manchester City as Spurs have taken their spending this summer past £300m.

The Brazilian becomes City’s record sale – replacing Julian Alvarez, who moved to Atletico Madrid for £82m two years ago – and one of the three most expensive players in Tottenham’s history, along with his new teammates Sandro Tonali and Mateus Fernandes.
