The report comes courtesy of a tweet by PA Sport journalist Jonathan Wheel ahead of Spurs hosting Liverpool at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium at the weekend.

Son Hyung-min is undergoing further tests on the injury today. His eye was very swollen last night. The players, who came down at 4am, have been given today and tomorrow off as a reward for last night’s progress. #THFC
