Ange Postecoglou has named Mikey Moore and Will Lankshear in his Tottenham Hotspur side to take on Ferencvaros on Thursday night in the Europa League.

Spurs have plenty of players missing in Hungary, travelling without the injured Son Heung-min, Destiny Udogie, Wilson Odobert and Richarlison, while Radu Dragusin is suspended and Djed Spence and Sergio Reguilon, who flew over to train with the team, were both left out of the club's Europa League squad as there was no space for them.

Tottenham play again in two-and-a-half days' time with a trip to Brighton on Sunday afternoon and with that in mind Postecoglou has named only four players who started in the win at Old Trafford.

Mikey Moore and Will Lankshear both coming into the starting line-up with fellow academy youngsters, defenders Alfie Dorrington and Dante Cassanova and 18-year-old winger Damola Ajayi all on the bench.

Archie Gray looks to be at left-back with Ben Davies at centre-back with Lucas Bergvall making it four teenagers in the starting XI.

Here's the team Postecoglou has chosen to face Ferencvaros at the Groupama Arena: Vicario; Porro, Romero, Davies, Gray; Sarr, Bissouma, Bergvall, Moore, Lankshear, Werner. Subs: Forster, Austin, Van de Ven, Dorrington, Cassanova, Bentancur, Maddison, Kulusevski, Johnson, Ajayi, Solanke.
