massive injury setback for Tottenham
Tottenham winger Wilson Odobert has been out of action since suffering a hamstring injury during the Carabao Cup tie against Coventry City last month.
The injury saw the young forward leave the pitch after just 18 minutes, and he has subsequently missed three matches.
Odobert, who joined Spurs from Burnley earlier in August for a reported fee of €29.3 million, made an impressive debut in a 4-0 victory over Everton, showcasing glimpses of his talent and future potential.
However, the 19-year-old has been unable to build on that performance due to his injury setback.
Paul O’Keefe recently provided an update on Odobert’s condition on his X handle, explaining that the winger is facing a longer recovery period.
O’Keefe suggested that Odobert may be sidelined for another six weeks as the club monitors his rehabilitation closely.
The injury is considered serious enough to warrant caution, but there remains hope that Odobert could resume full training after the upcoming international break, depending on his recovery progress.
Despite this setback, Odobert has already made a positive impression with his speed and attacking threat from the wing.
His return to full fitness will provide manager Ange Postecoglou with an extra attacking option as Spurs aim to compete on both domestic and European fronts.
Tottenham fans are eagerly awaiting Odobert’s return to action, with expectations that the young Frenchman will make a strong impact once he is back to full strength and available for selection.
The last few years have been incredibly turbulent and full of change for Tottenham Hotspur.
The North Londoners have employed four full-time managers in as many years, with the likes of José Mourinho, Nuno Espírito Santo, and Antonio Conte all unable to deliver the success or brand of football the fans desire.
Now, while it’s too early to comment on the success side of things, the latest man in the hot seat, Ange Postecoglou, has undoubtedly been able to bring the style of football back that the fans so desperately wanted, and all without arguably the best player in the club’s history, Harry Kane.
