The squad is expected to fly to Australia on June 14 ahead of their first pre-season friendly against West Ham United in Perth on June 18.
Skipp and Udogie look to impress Postecoglou
Gold reveals that Udogie, who was part of Italy’s European Under-21 Championship campaign, is expected to cut short his holiday to get a chance to work with Ange Postecoglou before the tour party departs.
The journalist adds that Skipp might also do the same despite the England Under-21s making the final of the tournament.
Gold also states that Son Heung-min could fly directly to Australia from South Korea rather than facing the prospect of two long-haul flights around the world in the space of a couple of days.
Spurs Web Opinion
With Italy having been eliminated in the group stages for the European Under-21 championship, one would expect Udogie to report early for pre-season.
Skipp would be forgiven for taking a little longer off, given how far England have gone in the tournament.
However, the 22-year-old is a model professional and he will be keen to cut short his holiday and make an impression on the new coaching staff.
