Tottenham Hotspur coach Mauricio Pochettino has suggested that Fiorentina will not miss winger Juan Cuadrado.

Spurs welcome the Italian side to White Hart Lane tomorrow night for the first leg of their last-32 tie in the Europa League.

Colombian international Cuadrado moved from Fiorentina to Chelsea for around £26m earlier this month, but Pochettino has warned his team that the Serie A outfit still boast a strong squad despite losing one of their best players.

"Cuadrado is an unbelievable player, but it is true that Fiorentina have a strong squad, a lot of good players," he is quoted as saying by Sky Sports News. "Yes, we watch a lot of games from Fiorentina in the last period and it is a very, very good team."

Spurs qualified for the last 32 of the Europa League by finishing in second place in Group C, while Fiorentina secured top spot in Group K.
