Tottenham Hotspur head coach Mauricio Pochettino has said that he is happy with the options that he has in the centre of his defence.
There had been a suggestion that Pochettino could enter the transfer market for another centre-back with Jan Vertonghen still recovering from injury, but with the Belgian nearing a return and the Argentine having other options he can call upon, he has insisted that he will only look to sign players from other areas.
The 44-year-old told reporters: "Jan Vertonghen is in London but he is training very well now. He's very close to coming back. Wimmer, Alderweireld and Eric Dier and Victor Wanyama can play centre-back. And then young players like CCV (Carter-Vickers) and Ball. We have enough players in that position.
"He [Vertonghen] is going well in the last few days and we'll see when we arrive Monday and start training with all group what condition he is. If it's not possible [for him to play against Everton], we have players enough to replace him."
Spurs continue their pre-season campaign with a game against Atletico Madrid on Friday.
