Overview
- Dominic Solanke told The Athletic he is progressing day by day from a long-term ankle injury and is slowly edging closer to playing again.
- He confirmed he required surgery after early efforts to return failed, having been limited to three substitute appearances with his last outing on August 23 at Manchester City.
- The Athletic’s reporting indicates he will not feature in Sunday’s trip to Arsenal or next week’s Champions League tie at Paris Saint‑Germain.
- Tottenham’s attack has misfired during his absence, with several forwards struggling and centre-back Micky van de Ven currently the club’s top scorer this season.
- Thomas Frank previously described the issue as “nothing big,” while Solanke now declines to set a comeback date, though some coverage suggests a December appearance could be possible.
