Tottenham pre-season team to face Watford confirmed: Tanguy Ndombele and Davinson Sanchez start

Jose Mourinho might be missing plenty of internationals but he has still been able to name a strong Tottenham Hotspur team to start at Watford.

Spurs have a number of internationals out on duty with various European nations but the head coach has still been able to put out a number of players to excite the fans.

Tanguy Ndombele, despite reports in France about his health, starts his first pre-season match as does Davinson Sanchez.

The Tanguy Ndombele question

Summer signing Joe Hart starts in goal with teenager Dennis Cirkin also getting another start at left-back.

Ndombele plays alongside and Harvey White in the centre of the pitch with Dele Alli starting with Erik Lamela, who missed Saturday's win over Birmingham as he became a father for the second time that day.

Son Heung-min is named captain for the day while a young substitutes bench contains for the first time this pre-season midfielder George Marsh and 19-year-old right-back Jubril Okedina.

Here is the full team and subs Mourinho has chosen:

Hart; Aurier, Sanchez, Carter-Vickers, Cirkin; White, Ndombele, Dele; Lamela, Son (c), Lucas. Subs: Gazzaniga, Foyth, Bowden, Clarke, Marsh, Okedina, Devine, Scarlett.
