A Tottenham youngster, who impressed many last season, could soon be in line to play his first match under Roberto De Zerbi.Roberto De Zerbi has hinted that he will make big changes to his Tottenham starting eleven for their Carabao Cup clash at Anfield on Tuesday.The pressure is piling on the Spurs head coach, who will be desperate for his side to find the back of the net against Liverpool and show signs of improvement.Tottenham fans will be keen to see if any of the club’s young guns get an opportunity, and a 17-year-old, who is rated highly at Hotspur Way, may be in line for his first appearance of the season.Credit: @thefrederikkejensen / InstagramJun’ai Byfield returns to Tottenham training ahead of Liverpool clashMidfielder Jun’ai Byfield impressed under Thomas Frank last season, playing twice in the Champions League and once against Manchester City in the Premier League back in February.The teenager’s season was cut short prematurely by injury, which meant that he did not play any part in Spurs’ pre-season plans.However, Byfield has now recovered from injury and is returning to training ahead of the Carabao Cup clash at Anfield. The 17-year-old may have a shot of making the matchday squad for the first time under De Zerbi.Given the fact that Byfield covered at right-back in the Champions League for Spurs, and is very highly thought of around Hotspur Way, he could offer some much-needed depth to the squad.In an ideal world, Archie Gray would be competing for minutes in midfield, rather than being shoe-horned into the XI as a makeshift right-back while Porro is injured. Byfield could allow De Zerbi to kill two birds with one stone on that front.Jun'ai Byfield back in training after his injury issues [IG] pic.twitter.com/gWAcr8xuNk— The Spurs Web (@thespursweb) September 14, 2026Two other Spurs academy starlets may be hoping for a chance against LiverpoolTyrese Hall has been outstanding in Premier League 2 so far this season, scoring three times and picking up three assists in the first three games for the U21s.The 21-year-old central midfielder may be hoping that he has done enough to catch the eye of the first-team coaching staff.Meanwhile, De Zerbi has described Luca Williams‑Barnett as a ‘precious diamond’, and given Tottenham’s creativity issues, the attacking midfielder could be given a chance to showcase his quality against the Reds.READ MORE: Roberto De Zerbi reveals whether Richarlison could play for Tottenham vs LiverpoolThe post Injury return could hand Tottenham an unlikely solution to right-back problems appeared first on Spurs Web.
