Overview

• Dominic Solanke confirmed he had minor ankle surgery on Wednesday and said the procedure was successful.
• The £65m striker said he tried to play through the issue for months before opting for surgery and hopes to be back on the pitch soon.
• Journalist Tom Barclay reported the club hopes Solanke could return after the October international break, though that remains a target rather than a firm date.
• Solanke’s layoff continued as Spurs drew 2-2 at Bodo/Glimt after trailing 2-0, marking the sixth match he has missed this season.
• Richarlison drew criticism for a minimal impact in Norway, and Thomas Frank indicated Randal Kolo Muani is close to returning from a dead leg.
