Tottenham Hotspur has been dealt a significant blow ahead of their highly anticipated Sunday clash against Manchester United, as midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur has been ruled out due to injury.
Bentancur, 26, suffered a hamstring strain during Tottenham’s 2-1 win over Brighton & Hove Albion on Wednesday and will miss the crucial Premier League match.
Tottenham FC Manager, Ange Postecoglou:
“Rodrigo’s injury is unfortunate timing. He’s been instrumental in our midfield, but we have faith in our squad depth.”
Impact:
– Bentancur’s absence leaves a void in Tottenham’s midfield
Injury Details:
– Hamstring strain
– Expected recovery time: 2-3 weeks
Tottenham FC’s Options:
– Replace Bentancur with Oliver Skipp or Pierre-Emile Højbjerg
