Tottenham boss Antonio Conte admits Eric Dier's continued absence through injury is a “big blow".

The defender has missed the last two games with a recurrence of a thigh problem that he sustained before the winter break and Conte has said he will not be ready to face Wolves on Sunday.

Conte does however expect the England international to be fit for next week's trip to Manchester City.

“No, unfortunately he's not fit. For sure, he's a big loss for us," Conte said. “He needs a bit more time to recover. I hope to have him available for the next game, away at City.

“But for this game, he's not available."
