Tottenham have something of an injury crisis on their hands. Particularly in midfield.
After Hugo Lloris was confirmed to be out for six to eight weeks last week, Yves Bissouma was then seen in a protective boot. A statement on the club website confirmed that the former Brighton man had suffered an ankle injury. The statement read: "We can confirm that Yves Bissouma is to undergo surgery on Friday to repair a stress fracture to his left ankle. A timeframe for the midfielder’s return to training will be determined after surgery. He will begin rehabilitation with our medical staff as soon as possible."
Things then went from bad to worse on Saturday when Rodrigo Bentancur went down injured after winning a tackle in the middle of the park against Leicester City. And the injury was as bad as feared, with the Uruguayan rupturing his anterior cruciate ligament, ruling him out for the rest of the season.
