Manager Mauricio Pochettino spoke to the media at his press conference, where he talked about the latest injury to Verratti.

“These are things that happen in football. He is an important player for us, but also for all the coaches who have been here. He is a fundamental player,” Pochettino said.

“It’s a shame we can’t count on him tomorrow. We hope that he can find this continuity with the team to play regularly. We are still positive, and we hope this will be his last injury.”
