Tottenham injury news: Doctor issues Manor Solomon update amid fresh blow
We’re delighted to welcome injury expert Dr Rajpal Brar as our exclusive columnist. Each week he’ll be giving his views on the injury situation at Tottenham Hotspur...
Tottenham attacker Manor Solomon had his meniscus repaired but there have been complications with his recovery, according to Dr Rajpal Brar.
The injury expert claims that the Israel international is likely to be out for another month which means a March return seems to be on the cards.
Ange Postecoglou confirmed this week that the 24-year-old had a couple of setbacks with his recovery.
Discussing the state of play with Solomon exclusively with Tottenham News, Dr Brar, a doctor in physical therapy and a sports scientist, said: “He had a meniscus injury to his knee and based on timeline, has the meniscus repaired.
“I don’t put too much stock into initial timelines, especially for injuries with extended absences, so the timeline being pushed out initially didn’t surprise me that much.
“However, he’s suffered a setback from what is a complicated recovery.
“I reckon he’s likely to be out for another month.
“It’ll take him some time to get back to training as well.“
The 24-year-old has not really had the chance to thrive under Ange Postecoglou this season at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
He’s made just two Premier League starts and played a grand total of 198 minutes over five league appearances.
He is still to get on the scoresheet or register and assist for Spurs this season and will be hoping to improve on his record once he returns to full fitness.
The Israel international is predominantly a left winger but has been deployed on the right flank too for his country.
