Tottenham take on Leyton Orient in their first pre-season friendly on Saturday afternoon as Nuno Espirito Santo takes charge of the team for the first time

Hello and welcome to live coverage of Tottenham's first pre-season friendly ahead of the 2021/22 season as they make the short trip to Leyton Orient.

Don't

Almost two months on from the team's 4-2 win at Leicester City on the final day of the Premier League campaign to secure a European spot, we aren't that far away from the new term with the team having been back at Hotspur Way for the past two weeks.

The friendly at The Breyer Group Stadium will see Nuno Espirito Santo take charge of the team for the very first time this afternoon following his appointment in place of Jose Mourinho.

The new Spurs boss has a number of options to choose from in today's friendly but he will be without the likes of Harry Kane, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Hugo Lloris and Giovani Lo Celso following their participation in the major tournaments this summer.

Likely to go for a mixture of youth and experience in his side as he assesses his squad, a number of the club's talented academy players could well be given minutes against the League Two outfit.

Our Tottenham correspondents Alasdair Gold and Rob Guest are covering the match with all the action from inside the stadium and reaction from the supporters and media.

As a number of fans have been asking the question on social media, TJ Eyoma is the man with the captain's armband after all the substitutions.

Harvey White, Troy Parrott, Jack Clarke, TJ Eyoma, Malachi Fagan-Walcott, Tobi Omole, Jamie Bowden, Brooklyn Lyons-Foster, Romaine Mundle and Alfie Devine replace all the outfield players.

Dane Scarlett runs on to a long ball out of defence but he just can't get enough control on the floated pass to stop it going through to the keeper.

Lovely diagonal ball from Harry Winks into the path of Nile John in the box. The teenager touched the ball over the defender but his shot was saved low down by the keeper.

The Spurs players wearing some different numbers today. Dele Alli wearing the number 10, Lucas Moura with 9, Dier is 5, while Dane Scarlett is wearing 19. The new kit looks smart.

The spine of the team has plenty of those who missed out on summer international competition in Eric Dier, Harry Winks, Dele Alli, Steven Bergwijn and Lucas Moura.

Cameron Carter-Vickers has played plenty of , mostly in the Championship, while it is a first start in first team surroundings for Dane Scarlett, Nile John, Maksim Paskotsi and Kallum Cesay.

Scarlett's start will give the fans a first real sustained glimpse of a teenager Jose Mourinho once again labelled as a 'phenomenal' young talent, while Troy Parrott is on the bench and ready to come on and remind everyone that he's got plenty of ability as well.

Some of those senior players who had disappointing seasons last time around now have a chance to impress the new man straight out of the gates.

Steven Bergwijn was left low after his Netherlands exclusion just before the Euros and he needs confidence to properly ignite a Tottenham career that has only so far provided glimpses of the all-round game he has.

Dele Alli has been working hard in the close season, but he did similar last summer and it's now about finding that drive again consistently into the season.

For others it is about showing their worth ahead of what will be another fixture-packed season and giving enough glimpses, as many as you can in friendlies, that they should not be replaced by new signings.

There are also a number of senior players not deemed ready to play today and Espirito Santo did tell us that would happen today after a very tough week in training, as he looks to balance their progress without risking injury so early in the pre-season.

Tactically it looks like a back four and it will be interesting to see whether Espirito Santo sticks with that as pre-season goes on and into the Premier League campaign.
