Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane is set to lead the line for the Lilywhites in their opening pre-season friendly with West Ham United in Perth on Tuesday.
The 29-year-old has made the trip Down Under despite intense speculation surrounding a possible move to Bayern Munich, whose desire to sign the England captain is no secret.
Spurs chairman Daniel Levy continues to drive a hard bargain, though, and Kane has shown no indication that he wants to force a move away from North London, where he is only under contract for another 12 months.
While Kane has made the trip to the South Pacific, Spurs will make do without five injured players in Rodrigo Bentancur (knee), Fraser Forster (back), Bryan Gil (back), Troy Parrott (groin) and Ryan Sessegnon (hamstring), while Hugo Lloris has been left at home to seek out a possible transfer elsewhere.
Kane could therefore form a recognisable attacking trident with Son Heung-min and Dejan Kulusevski, whose loan deal from Juventus has now been made permanent, while Manor Solomon could also be in line for his debut.
With Postecoglou expected to implement his quintessential 4-3-3 setup, James Maddison could start as the most advanced of Spurs' midfielders, with Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Yves Bissouma joining the ex-Leicester City playmaker.
Destiny Udogie and Guglielmo Vicario should also don the Spurs colours for the first time in the backline, where regulars Eric Dier, Pedro Porro and Cristian Romero could welcome the Italian duo.
Tottenham Hotspur possible starting lineup: Vicario; Porro, Romero, Dier, Udogie; Hojbjerg, Bissouma, Maddison; Kulusevski, Kane, Son
