Tottenham had a weekend to forget, suffering an embarrassing 4-1 Premier League defeat to Leicester City in at the King Power Stadium.
The north Londoners had taken the lead early on through midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur before Nampalys Mendy and James Maddison fired back for the hosts in quick succession. Former Manchester City frontman Kelechi Iheanacho then doubled the Foxes' lead before half-time, with winger Harvey Barnes rounding off the scoring after the break in what was a miserable debut for Spurs' January signing Pedro Porro.
The loss wasn't the only blow to Antonio Conte's side as the aforementioned Bentancur was forced off in the second half due to injury, with Tottenham already short of options in the middle of the park following Yves Bissouma's injury earlier this week. With that being said, football.london takes a look at all the latest injury news for Spurs following their disappointing weekend.

Rodrigo Bentancur
Midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur was subbed off with a knee issue in the loss at the King Power, appearing to be in considerable discomfort initially before attempting to play on. However, it became clear that the Uruguayan international was unable to continue and he was ultimately replaced by Pape Matar Sarr.
What Cristian Stellini said: "He feels pain at the moment. We know only this but he can walk so it's important to feel that he came back to the bench with his leg [injury] and we hope that we can check in a few days that Rodrigo can feel better and he play soon."
Expected return date: N/A
Ryan Sessegnnon
Spurs wing-back Ryan Sessegnon is set to miss around six weeks of action after sustaining a hamstring injury, football.london understands. The 22-year-old suffered the injury in training ahead of yesterday's clash, football.london understands, leaving Croatian veteran Ivan Perisic as the only fit natural left wing-back for the foreseeable future.
Expected return date: Late March
Hugo Lloris
Tottenham's first-choice goalkeeper Hugo Lloris is missing for the clash with Leicester after sustaining knee ligament damage in the win over Manchester City. Fraser Forster is set to fill in while the experienced shot stopper recovers, with over a month on the sidelines in the pipeline.
What Cristian Stellini said: "We are all disappointed about Hugo and his injury. However, we have a good experienced goalkeeper [in] Fraser Forster with great experience in the Premier League and Champions League. We have a tough five weeks in front of us."
Expected return date: Late March/Early April
Yves Bissouma
While assistant coach Cristian Stellini claimed in his press conference that everyone was available for the clash except for Lloris, there was another twist in store. An Instagram video appeared to show midfielder Yves Bissouma on crutches and wearing a protective boot in the dressing room.
It was later revealed to be a stress fracture in his left ankle, with surgery required to make sure he could recover properly. The timeframe will be better understood after the surgery has been successfully completed.
Expected return date: N/A
