However, it is still unlikely Maddison will feature after Postecoglou insisted he would be out for the season with a knee injury. The player himself put out a statement admitting how gutted he was to miss the final.

He said: "Gutted. Just absolutely gutted. We’ve had our sights on that European final in Bilbao from day one of this campaign. So to accept not being able to take part out on that pitch with the boys is really tough to take.

"Injuries are just part of this game that can be so cruel at times. But I truly believe that it can be a special night for my football club. Bring on the 21st. All together."

Maddison wasn't the only injured player to be spotted among the travelling group as Bergvall was also seen getting on the bus. Dragusin was also pictured in Bilbao by Spurs media.

It's likely that Postecoglou wanted to include all players for the trip to Spain to boost the team's spirits. Kulusevski, however, was not spotted in the pictures after recently having knee surgery.

United also have some injury worries going into the final, with defenders Leny Yoro, Matthijs de Ligt and Diogo Dalot set for fitness tests in the run up to the game.

Amorim already knows centre-back Lisandro Martinez and forward Joshua Zirkzee have been ruled out of the game and won't feature again this season, while there are also question marks over Jonny Evans.
