Tottenham Hotspur's manager confirmed on Wednesday that James Maddison has picked up a calf strain and will be out of action for two to three weeks. "Madders has got a calf strain," Ange Postecoglou said. "So he is probably two or three weeks (out) for us."
Richarlison has only just returned from injury and gave the Spurs the lead on Sunday. Still, the Brazilian was subbed off for Spurs early in the second-half, a decision to have been met by a smattering of boos from the home support. After the game, Postecoglou confirmed the decision was made due to a groin injury.
Maddison's calf issue is expected to sideline him for two to three weeks. This adds to Tottenham's injury woes, with Micky Van de Ven, Christian Romero, Brennan Johnson, and Dominic Solanke already out. Maddison might miss the crucial Carabao Cup semi-final second leg against Liverpool at Anfield early next month.
Ange Postecoglou has confirmed Tottenham will be without James Maddison for several weeks. Maddison was ruled out of last weekend's surprise defeat to Leicester City with a calf strain which is now set to keep him on the sidelines for up to three weeks.
