Tottenham injury update: Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven, Wilson Odobert latest news and return dates | OneFootball

Injuries are beginning to mount up for Spurs

Ange Postecoglou is no closer to having a fully fit Tottenham squad at his disposal after a setback in his squad.

Despite recently welcoming captain Heung-min Son back into the fold, Spurs once again headed into an international break with injury concerns.

That was on the back of a disappointing 2-1 home defeat at the hands of Ipswich Town and Postecoglou's mood will not have improved amid reports of a fresh concern surrounding vice-captain Cristian Romero and confirmation that Wilson Odobert is out for the foreseeable after doing under the knife.

Cristian Romero

The centre-back had to be taken off at half-time in Argentina's defeat in Paraguay earlier in the week and reports suggest he may suffered a recurrance of the foot injury sustained against Aston Villa.

With a trip to Manchester City up next it remains to be seen if Cristian Romero is fit and available for selection.

Micky van de Ven

Micky van de Ven featured in the Carabao Cup win over Man City last month but left the pitch in tears.

“He has strained a hamstring,” said Postecoglou before the Villa game. “It is not too serious, but probably after the international break for him.”

Potential return date: Early December 2024

Wilson Odobert

Wilson Odobert is facing an extended spell on the sidelines after hamstring surgery.

It was revealed last month that the £25million summer signing suffered a “serious” setback in his recovery and Spurs have now confirmed the next steps.

In a statement, Tottenham said: "We can confirm that Wilson Odobert underwent surgery to his right hamstring yesterday (Saturday, November 16).

"The 19-year-old will continue to be closely monitored by our medical team to determine when he can return to training."

Potential return date: Unknown

Richarlison

It has been an injury-hit campaign for Richarlison thus far and sustained a fresh knock when setting up Dominic Solanke’s second goal against Aston Villa, not long after having come on as a substitute.

Addressing the latest setback on social media, he wrote: “It’s a difficult moment, again. I was very happy working hard and playing, but now I am injured again”.
