Spurs dealt yet another injury blow | OneFootball

We have already seen an absolutely ludicrous injury crisis at Tottenham Hotspur this season. So many crucial players have missed long periods of time. It's not only been injuries either. Rodrigo Bentancur missed seven games with suspension, and Mikey Moore was ill for two months.

Yet another injury blow dealt to Ange Postecoglu and Spurs

Tonight, on Saturday the 18th of January, another blow has been dealt to Ange and Spurs. As per reliable insider Paul O Keefe, Dominic Solanke has picked up an injury. On his Twitter account, O Keefe said: "One normal day is all I ask. Dom Solanke injured - timescale to be confirmed. Knee injury of some description."

Just typical. Incredible. The 27-year old played in all 38 Premier League games for AFC Bournemouth last season. He then missed two of his first league games for Spurs, and has now picked up another injury. Really is a truly cursed club.

An injury to Solanke may make you think it is a result of having to play every minute of every game (and 52 minutes against a non league side on a 3G pitch). However, the fact it has been reported as a knee injury could mean it is not do with playing too much, and perhaps something a lot worse.

It still could be correlated in some way to the amount of games he has played, but there is a worry that it could be a serious knee injury. He didn't have to go off against Arsenal, which gives the idea it could have happened in training. Perhaps non contact. That said, he didn't go off against Leicester City on the opening day, and he did pick up an injury that game.

Very, very concerning regardless. Luckily, nearly three weeks into the January window, Spurs have done plenty of business at that end of the pitch to compensate. Wait. Tottenham are are going to have to play Richarlison from the start against his former club tomorrow, unless Ange trusts Will Lankshear. He didn't play a minute against Tamworth, so it would be highly unlikely to see him starting tomorrow.

Just get anyone in. Whoever it is. For example, Jonathan David is out of contract in six months. Lille cannot demand that much for him now can they? Whatever it is they ask for, Spurs can afford. It would just be down to Daniel Levy and co being cheap, as always.
