Rodrigo Bentancur, Lucas Moura, Bryan Gil - Latest Tottenham injury news ahead of Fulham clash

Tottenham need to get back to winning ways. It has been a tough time for the Spurs team of late, with back-to-back defeats coming at the hands of Premier League title challengers Arsenal and Manchester City.

After leading 2-0 at half-time against City, defensive mistakes hurt Spurs as they collapsed to a 4-2 defeat to the Premier League champions. That came just four days after Antonio Conte's side had lost the North London Derby against fierce rivals Arsenal at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Up next is a battle away at high-flying Fulham, who will be hoping to continue their fine form and leapfrog Spurs in the table with a win.

Ahead of the game, football.london takes a look through the latest injury news from N17.

Lucas Moura

Brazilian forward Lucas Moura has been out with a tendon issue that continues to plague him throughout the season, with it currently being unknown when he will return.

What Conte has said: "Lucas Moura, this is the only critical situation because it's very difficult to understand if he is going to come quickly or we have to wait a long time."

Return date: Unknown

Bryan Gil

football.london understands that Gil was not part of the squad in Manchester after sustaining a knock in training leading up to the game.

What Conte said: N/A

Return date: N/A

Rodrigo Bentancur

The Uruguayan, so pivotal to the way Tottenham play, made his return from injury sustained at the World Cup in the defeat to Manchester City. He was taken off by Conte with 15 minutes of the game remaining. But that appears to have been only precautionary.

What Conte has said: "It is difficult to answer because only yesterday night we played and I think no, but sometimes after one day can happen something you need, especially the medical department need time to make a valuation but I hope not (any injuries) and we finish with all the players, a bit tired, especially the players recovering from injuries like Rodrigo Bentancur, like Deki Kulusevski and only fatigue."

Return date: Fulham (A)
