Sadly.Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou confirms triple injury blow ahead of Wolves clash

Udogie was taken off the field late in Spurs’ thrilling 2-1 victory over Brighton last weekend, seemingly suffering a knee injury. In two weeks, the Italian should be back for the matchup with Crystal Palace.

Porro, on the other hand, will be out for a few weeks after straining his muscle during training.

At his pre-game press conference, Postecoglou stated, “We’ve had a couple of setbacks this week.”

“Destiny [Udogie] sustained an injury last week, and he is not able to play tomorrow.” It’s not something to take too seriously. I hope that’s all he’ll miss because there won’t be a game next week.

‘Pedro picked up a strain in training. We’ll get some further information but probably a couple of weeks for him. With game break hopefully he doesn’t miss too many.’

Both Porro and Udogie have been key cogs in Postecoglou’s attacking brand of football so far this season, but the Australian was adamant that their absence won’t affect his setup.

                   

‘The structure won’t change and the way we set up won’t change but different players bring different attributes. Pedro and Destiny have been outstanding for us this year.

‘Pedro has pretty much played every game apart from the first one where he didn’t start. Destiny every time he has been out there for us has been really important.

‘They’re both improving but as I said they’re missing now and there will be an opportunity for a couple of other guys to come in and make sure we maintain the levels we’ve set so far.’

Elsewhere, Postecoglou also confirmed that second-choice keeper Fraser Forster is set for an extended spell on the treatment table having suffered a fracture in his foot.

‘He will probably miss a couple of months,’ the Spurs boss said.
