Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou believes the club are ‘playing with fire’ if they do not bring in any players during the January transfer window. Spurs’ injury list is increasing by the week but there do not appear to be any signings in sight. Micky van de Ven, Destiny Udogie, Brennan Johnson and Dominic Solanke headline the list of key players missing at a crucial part of the season. Timo Werner and goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario also remain unavailable.

Midfielder Pape Sarr is the latest to suffer an injury setback and defender Cristian Romero will remain on the sidelines for tomorrow’s home clash with Leicester, despite having returned to training. Asked if there is money for Spurs to spend, Postecoglou said: ‘Don’t ask those questions, it’s not something I’m involved in. My discussions with Johan (Lange, technical director) and the club have been about trying to get some help for the players and then I’ll let them do their jobs.

‘There’s not a lot more depth that I can give to it because, within the context of that, I’ve still got to manage this team and get them ready.’. Postecoglou has warned that Spurs are 'playing with fire' if they do not sign anyone in January. Postecoglou's side currently have a Premier League-high 12 players sidelined due to injuries.
Spurs have endured a miserable run of form in the league, with just one win in their last 10. Spurs earned a morale-boosting win in the Europa League at Hoffenheim on Thursday to put them on course for a spot in the last 16, before jetting back to their north London training ground. ‘We got back at 2am,’ Postecoglou explained, before outlining the transfer structure within which he is working.
