Tottenham Reveals Champions League Squad, Maddison and Tel Excluded

Tottenham Hotspur has announced their 22-man squad for the Champions League, with notable exclusions including James Maddison and Mathys Tel. The team faced challenges meeting UEFA regulations, leaving three slots unfilled due to a shortage of homegrown players.

Manager Thomas Frank had to make tough decisions, with six players, including Radu Dragusin and Kota Takai, left out. The absence of Maddison, likely due to an ACL injury, and Tel's surprising omission have raised eyebrows.

The squad selection process highlighted the complexities of balancing player quotas and meeting UEFA requirements for European competitions.
