Mauricio Pochettino insists he has no immediate plans to recall centre-half Cameron Carter-Vickers from his loan spell at Sheffield United next month as cover.

Pochettino is short of options in central defence with Toby Alderweireld out until February and Davinson Sanchez serving a three-match ban for a red card.

Carter-Vickers, 19, is on loan at Bramall Lane where he has started 13 games in the Championship this season and Spurs will only seek a recall if they feel he is not getting the right experience with Chris Wilder's promotion-chasing team.

The database of 1,100 riot-related defendants will form part of a landmark study announced on Monday into the causes and consequences of the riots. The Guardian and the London School of Economics have launched Reading the Riots, for which researchers will interview hundreds of people involved in the disturbances in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Liverpool and Gloucester. The first empirical study into the widespread rioting and looting is supported by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation and
