Ange Postecoglou confirmed last week that Son was able to return to training on Friday, but confirmed that no decision will be made on him facing Bodo/Glimt until closer to the game.

Speaking after the loss at Anfield, Postecoglou again underlined how Son could miss Thursday's showdown.

He told BBC Sport: "It’ll be touch and go for Thursday. He’ll try hard. If [he’s not ready] for the first game we think he’ll be ready for the second game.”

Spurs went on to lose 5-1 at Anfield - their 19th league defeat of a miserable season - as Liverpool were crowned champions. It was grim preparation ahead of another season-defining game.

Postecolgou added: "There’s a massive opportunity. We’ll put all our energies, efforts and focus into that and try to push on to a European final."
