Tottenham star to have scan on Today: Injury not thought to be that serious

Sporting Tribune

TOBY ALDERWEIRELD will undergo a scan today after falling awkwardly and injuring his knee in the draw at West Brom

The Belgian international was carried off on a stretcher but was able to walk from the stadium and the damage is not believed to be as bad as first feared.

But Tottenham face a hectic four games in 11 days starting with the Champions League clash against Bayer Leverkusen in Germany on Tuesday.

Alderweireld will definitely miss out on that one but boss Mauricio Pochettino also faces up to losing his influential defender for the next few weeks.

Pochettino said: “We need to wait. We cannot say anything because maybe it is not a big issue.

W“e will see in the next few days what happened but first we need to be calm, quiet and assess him.”
