Tottenham Hotspur have been handed potentially another major injury blow as they battle to avoid relegation from the Premier League. Spurs are currently in 18th place and have four games remaining to avoid dropping into the Championship.

‌

Roberto De Zerbi won his first match as Tottenham boss over the weekend with the 1-0 victory away at Wolves, but has been handed some fresh injury concerns since the win.

‌

A report in The Telegraph has claimed that Dominic Solanke has suffered a hamstring injury that could keep the striker on the sidelines for the remainder of the season.

‌

Solanke was substituted during the win over Wolves due to injury and was replaced by Richarlison, and it seems that the striker could be set for a spell on the sidelines.

The report claims that Solanke has suffered a grade two hamstring injury, which could force the England international to be on the sidelines for anywhere between three and eight weeks.

As a result, even if Solanke is ruled out for three weeks, he would miss a sizable amount of Tottenham’s run-in and quest to avoid relegation from the Premier League.

‌

If Solanke is ruled out for eight weeks, then he would miss the remainder of Tottenham’s season and see his place in Thomas Tuchel’s England squad for the World Cup be in doubt.

The update on Solanke follows the news that Xavi Simons suffered an ACL injury during Tottenham’s win over Wolves and faces several months on the sidelines in recovery.

Cristian Romero will also miss the rest of the season through injury, while Dejan Kulusevski, Mohammed Kudus, Wilson Odobert and Ben Davies are long-term absentees.
