Tottenham have been further depleted ahead of the return of Premier League football, with Rodrigo Bentancur hit with a huge suspension amid a host of injury problems.
Bentancur will miss the next seven domestic games, though Spurs have appealed the length of the ban.
It means Ange Postecoglou is no closer to having a fully fit squad at his disposal amid reports of a fresh concern surrounding vice-captain Cristian Romero and confirmation that Wilson Odobert is out for the foreseeable after doing under the knife.
With that said, here is all the latest Tottenham injury news and return dates...
Cristian Romero
The centre-back had to be taken off at half-time in Argentina's defeat in Paraguay earlier in the week and reports suggest he may suffered a recurrence of the foot injury sustained against Aston Villa.
With a trip to Manchester City up next it remains to be seen if Cristian Romero is fit and available for selection.
Potential return date: Unknown
Micky van de Ven
Micky van de Ven featured in the Carabao Cup win over Man City last month but left the pitch in tears.
The good news is the Dutchman has avoided serious injury and is expected back after the current international break, although the game at the Etihad Stadium may come too soon.
“He has strained a hamstring,” said Postecoglou before the Villa game. “It is not too serious, but probably after the international break for him.”
Potential return date: Early December 2024

Wilson Odobert
Wilson Odobert is facing an extended spell on the sidelines after hamstring surgery.
It was revealed last month that the £25million summer signing suffered a “serious” setback in his recovery and Spurs have now confirmed the next steps.
In a statement, Tottenham said: "We can confirm that Wilson Odobert underwent surgery to his right hamstring yesterday (Saturday, November 16).
"The 19-year-old will continue to be closely monitored by our medical team to determine when he can return to training."
Potential return date: Unknown
Richarlison
It has been an injury-hit campaign for Richarlison thus far and sustained a fresh knock when setting up Dominic Solanke’s second goal against Aston Villa, not long after having come on as a substitute.
Addressing the latest setback on social media, he wrote: “It’s a difficult moment, again. I was very happy working hard and playing, but now I am injured again”.
“It’s difficult to say what I’m feeling in this moment, just pray for me… I hope God will protect me.”
Potential return date: December 2024
