Tottenham summer signing, Wilson Odobert, is expected to be sidelined for around a month after picking up a thigh injury against Coventry City on Wednesday.
According to French outlet L’Equipe, the 19-year-old winger underwent initial tests on Thursday, with further examinations planned once the swelling subsides. The club expects that Odobert will be out for approximately four weeks.
This injury comes at a crucial time for Tottenham, as they enter a busy stretch with three games per week, including a significant fixture against Manchester United next weekend.
The report suggests that Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou is hopeful Odobert will return in the latter half of October.
If the timeline holds, Odobert is likely to miss at least four matches, including two Europa League fixtures. He could be back in time for the home game against West Ham or the Europa League tie with AZ Alkmaar on October 25.
In Odobert’s absence, Spurs have several options, including captain Heung-min Son, who started on the left wing during their recent 3-1 win over Brentford. Timo Werner also remains a potential replacement in the attacking lineup.
