Tottenham Faces Injury Crisis as Postecoglou Calls for January Signings

Spurs manager warns of risks in failing to reinforce the squad as injuries and poor form challenge the club's season.

Overview

  • Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou has urged the club to bring in new players during the January transfer window, describing the situation as 'playing with fire' if no reinforcements arrive.
  • The team is grappling with a lengthy injury list, including key players like Dominic Solanke, Cristian Romero, and Micky van de Ven, with Solanke expected to miss six weeks due to a knee injury.
  • Postecoglou has relied on young players such as Lucas Bergvall and Archie Gray to fill gaps, though he cautions against overburdening them at this stage of their careers.
  • Despite the challenges, Tottenham secured a 3-2 Europa League win against Hoffenheim, offering a glimmer of hope as they aim to progress in cup competitions and stabilize their league position.
  • Spurs sit 15th in the Premier League with only one win in their last 10 matches and face Leicester City on Sunday in a bid to regain momentum.
