The club released the traveling squad on social media, and as you can expect it\u2019s a mixture of first team regulars and up and coming academy grads\/U21 squad players.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The travelling squad for our pre-season tour of Hong Kong and Korea has been confirmed  <\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Tottenham Hotspur (@SpursOfficial) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SpursOfficial\/status\/1949513753713656057?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">July 27, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"gsiWX0\">That said, there are several omissions. The most notable are Destiny Udogie and Mikey Moore. Udogie was a last-second scratch ahead of yesterday\u2019s scoreless preseason friendly draw against Luton Town at Kenilworth Road. Subsequent reporting stated that Udogie \u201cfelt something\u201d while in warm-up and the club decided not to take a risk with his fitness. The fact that he is not on the plane suggests whatever injury he picked up might be more serious than first thought.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1WS0Yc\">Udogie\u2019s absence means Spurs don\u2019t really have a natural right back in the squad. I suppose we will see some combination of Ben Davies and Djed Spence on that side in the two upcoming friendlies, or Frank may opt to bring in one of the youth players for substitute minutes. Jamie Donley, for example, has played at that position before, though it isn\u2019t his natural role.<\/p>\n<p id=\"OC3mLT\">Mikey Moore, meanwhile, has been linked with a loan to several unnamed Championship clubs, with some suggestions that he has been pushing for a loan this season. If he\u2019s absent, it could mean he\u2019s close to securing a loan elsewhere, something that could be good for his development, or he picked up an injury in training that we haven\u2019t heard about (yet). <\/p>\n<p id=\"4n7Qol\">Elsewhere, Tottenham\u2019s trio of injured players are also staying home. Dejan Kulusevski, Radu Dragusin, and new signing Kota Takai are all at home recovering from injuries. Kulusevski and Dragusin have long term injuries that date back to the end of last season, while Takai either arrived with or picked up an ankle knock in training.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ahQ5Qm\">Thankfully, both of Tottenham\u2019s South Korean players, Son Heung-Min and Yang Min-Hyeok, are on the plane, meaning they will be sure and collect the full amount of money promised them for visiting Asia.<\/p>\n<p id=\"eJDxPe\">Tottenham play Arsenal at Kai Tak Sports Park in Hong Kong on July 31, before traveling to Seoul, South Korea to play against <a href=\"https:\/\/cominghomenewcastle.sbnation.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Newcastle<\/a> at the Seoul World Cup Stadium on August 3.<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tottenham Hotspur departed England for Hong Kong today for the first leg of their preseason tour to Asia.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":41104,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[3995,13830,19675,2101,7056,664,424,33191,33192,403,99,16729,8258,7021,12853,33193,33190],"class_list":["post-41103","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-soccer","tag-asia","tag-captain","tag-cartilage","tag-for","tag-free","tag-from","tag-front-page","tag-moore","tag-omitted","tag-soccer","tag-sports","tag-squad","tag-tottenham","tag-tottenham-hotspur-news","tag-tour","tag-traveling","tag-udogie"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41103","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=41103"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41103\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/41104"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=41103"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=41103"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=41103"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
