Wilson Odobert has made three Premier League appearances for Tottenham Hotspur since joining them from Burnley on August 16th.
Earlier this week, the winger suffered an injury in Spurs’ EFL Cup win over Coventry City. He was replaced by Brennan Johnson in the 18th minute.
In his pre-match press conference on Friday, Ange Postecoglou said the Tottenham man’s hamstring injury “doesn’t look good”.
L’Equipe pick up on that and then give their own information on the Frenchman’s setback.
They state it was a ‘almost a dream’ start to his Tottenham career, and that has been ‘thwarted’ by the injury. The 19-year-old underwent initial tests on Thursday and the report adds he’ll carry out more tests, once the swelling subsides.
It’s claimed the north London club’s medical staff have ‘estimated’ Odobert will be out ‘for a month’. He’s expected to return to action in mid-October. There should be more clarity after he undergoes more tests.
Odobert represented France U21s in the European qualifiers against Slovenia and Bosnia & Herzegovina earlier this month. The attacker’s latest blow means Les Bleuets manager Gérald Baticle can’t rely upon him for October’s international break.
