Spurs suffer fresh injury blow with attacker ruled out for almost two months

Spurs striker Richarlison could miss up to seven weeks after suffering a hamstring injury, boss Thomas Frank has revealed.

The Brazilian has played 31 times in all competitions for Tottenham this season but is now set for a period on the sidelines.

“Richy has unfortunately got a hamstring injury that will keep him out for up to seven weeks,” the Spurs boss said.

But in more positive news, midfielder Lucas Bergvall could be available for this Saturday’s game against West Ham.

The Swede missed the FA Cup defeat to Aston Villa but is closing in on a return.

“Lucas could be available, hopefully will be available for Saturday,” Frank said.

Frank also says duo Dominic Solanke and Destiny Udogie have enjoyed a good week of training and are close to being able to play more minutes following their spells out with injury.

Yves Bissouma is also back from the Africa Cup of Nations and is available for selection once again.
