Tottenham Faces Defensive Crisis with Multiple Injuries and Suspension

Ange Postecoglou calls for squad reinforcements as Spurs struggle with a depleted roster and poor form in the Premier League.

  • Tottenham Hotspur is grappling with a severe injury crisis, leaving them without a single fit senior center-back for their upcoming match against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
  • Key defensive players, including Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven, Ben Davies, and Radu Dragusin, are sidelined due to injuries, with Dragusin's status still under assessment after an ankle issue.
  • Djed Spence is suspended following a red card, compounding Tottenham's defensive challenges, while several other players, including Richarlison and Mikey Moore, remain unavailable due to injuries or illness.
  • Manager Ange Postecoglou has emphasized the need for January reinforcements but cautioned that the transfer market is challenging and requires disciplined decision-making.
  • Spurs have lost four of their last five Premier League matches, dropping to 11th place in the table, their worst performance in 16 seasons, and face an in-form Wolves team rejuvenated under new coach Vitor Pereira.
