Thomas Frank AXES Spurs star from Super Cup squad ahead of PSG clash

Yves Bissouma has been axed from the Tottenham squad for the UEFA Super Cup final against Paris Saint-Germain for turning up late – again.

Thomas Frank has not taken long to tire of Bissouma's behaviour, which drew comment form his predecessors.

Antonio Conte complained of his punctuality and Ange Postecoglou left the Mali international midfielder out of a game at the start of last season after he was filmed inhaling nitrous oxide from a balloon.

'He has been late several times and now this time is one too many,' said Frank. 'With everything you need to give your players a lot of love, but you also have demands and there need to be consequences.

'There has now been a consequence for this trip. I'll park it for now and we will follow up when we come home.'

Bissouma adds to Tottenham’s list of absentees against PSG but Frank has confirmed Dominic Solanke, who has missed all but one of the pre-season friendlies, is fit from an ankle injury and available for the game.

Destiny Udogie is not ready to return but getting closer.

Spurs beat Manchester United to win the Europa League in May, while PSG thrashed Inter Milan 5-0 in the Champions League final.
