"It's a small procedure, so that will mean he is not ready [for Bodo/Glimt] and of course Leeds [on Saturday] as well. We'll have more news about a time frame after the international break, but I don't expect it to be long."
"No, I think you can look at it two ways. That is the easy answer but it is not that easy because if we knew we could have done the surgery a month ago, we probably would have done it. For me I am always 'it is what it is'. We deal with it now and no doubt the way we dealt with it was because we thought that was the right thing. In general no-one wants surgery."
Dominic Solanke underwent minor surgery to resolve an ankle injury that had been bothering him. He last played for Tottenham on 23 August against Manchester City and missed training ahead of the Champions League trip to Bodo/Glimt. The small procedure will rule him out of the Bodo/Glimt fixture and the upcoming match against Leeds. More information on a recovery timeframe will follow after the international break, with expectations that the absence will not be lengthy. The 28-year-old missed most of pre-season with the same issue but appeared in early-August matches against Paris St-Germain, Burnley and Manchester City. Tottenham sit fourth in the Premier League.
