Jenas misses European clash

Jermaine Jenas will miss Tottenham’s Champions League play-off round first leg at Young Boys tomorrow night due to a calf strain.

England midfielder Jenas did not travel to Bern, while Ledley King also stayed in London, with manager Harry Redknapp unwilling to risk his captain’s persistent knee problem on the Swiss club’s artificial pitch.

David Bentley (ankle), Jamie O’Hara (back) and Jonathan Woodgate (groin) remain sidelined.

Provisional squad: Gomes, Cudicini, Hutton, Bale, Kaboul, Naughton, Bassong, Dawson, Corluka, Assou-Ekotto, Walker, Huddlestone, Rose, Lennon, Jenas, Palacios, Modric, Kranjcar, Pavlyuchenko, Keane, Crouch, Dos Santos, Defoe.
