    I played against Lukaku when he was in the academy as well. He obviously has the physical side but he has the tactical as well. He is one where when he is on and it is his day it is impossible to stop them scoring. You can make it difficult for them, but he is that difference maker. When he is on, he is on.

    Manchester United will assess the fitness of Raphael Varane, whose protracted move from Real Madrid was completed last weekend.

    Southampton have no new injury concerns for the visit of Manchester United.

    Sam McQueen and Will Smallbone are their only absentees.

    Wolves v Spurs (14:00 BST)

    The Tottenham team coach has just arrived at Molineux.

    Among the suited Spurs players getting off the coach was one Harry Kane, who received a few boos from the gathered Wolves fans.

    No such negativity for ex-boss Nuno Espirito Santo, though, who's arrival with his new club was greeted with applause. No hard feelings.

    Tottenham striker Harry Kane has travelled with the squad for today's match at Wolves.

    Kane, 28, has been linked with a move to Manchester City, who are understood to be willing to break their £100m British transfer record to sign him.

    The England captain was left out of Spurs' squad as they beat City last Sunday in their Premier League opener.

    He also missed Thursday's Europa Conference League defeat at Portuguese side Pacos de Ferreira.

    Kane did not turn up at Spurs when initially expected following a break after Euro 2020, but later said he has "never refused to train" and would return to the club as planned.

    He believes he has a gentleman's agreement with Daniel Levy to leave this summer, but the Spurs chairman has has refused to enter into negotiations.
