Manor Solomon back in Tottenham lineup for clash against Chelsea
12:45, live broadcast on Sport1: The Israeli continues to earn trust from Roberto De Zerbi. Tonali and Solanke started alongside him, while Palmer, Estevao, and Joao Pedro featured in the opposition's starting XI.
Manor Solomon is back in the Tottenham lineup, this time against Chelsea. The Israeli stood out during Tottenham's preparation matches in Australia over the past week, and despite rumors that the Spurs are pursuing Savinho and Cody Gakpo from Liverpool, he continues to receive significant backing from Roberto De Zerbi. This remains the case as Tottenham faces city rivals Chelsea in an exhibition match in Sydney.
This marks the first meeting between the two teams outside of Britain, held at Accor Stadium before a crowd of approximately 80,000 spectators. Tottenham arrived undefeated in their pre-season campaign, having secured a 1:0 victory over Milton Keynes Dons, a 2:0 win against Auckland, and a penalty shootout triumph over Sydney following a 1:1 draw.
Both teams are picking up the pace with three weeks remaining until the start of the Premier League. For Tottenham, this match serves as an opportunity to see Jan Paul van Hecke, Andy Robertson, and Sandro Tonali in action, with Solomon joining them in the front line. The revamped Chelsea side, managed by Xabi Alonso, started with Estevao, Cole Palmer, and Joao Pedro up front.
