Injury Shock for Tottenham Ahead of Galatasaray Match
Galatasaray, set to have a bye week in the Super Lig, will play its next match against Tottenham in the UEFA Europa League. Last night, Tottenham faced Manchester City in the English League Cup and secured a 2-1 win, advancing to the next round but suffering three significant injuries.
Having recently beaten Besiktas and widening the points gap in the league, Galatasaray’s next challenge is against Premier League giants Tottenham. Tottenham, who hosted and defeated Manchester City with goals from Timo Werner in the 5th minute and Pape Sarr in the 25th, now faces injury concerns.
THREE INJURIES FOR TOTTENHAM! PLAYERS UNABLE TO CONTINUE
Set to face Galatasaray in Istanbul on November 7, Tottenham saw three players injured in the match against City. Defender Mickey van de Ven was forced off in the 14th minute. Later, in the 52nd minute, fellow center-back Romero exited due to injury, followed by star forward Timo Werner in the 69th minute. No updates have yet been provided on their conditions.
HEUNG MIN SON DOUBTFUL
Heung Min Son, dealing with a thigh injury and having played only once in the last seven matches, also remains a doubt. Tottenham will face Aston Villa in the Premier League this week, sitting 8th in the standings with 13 points from 9 games. In the UEFA Europa League, Tottenham currently holds second place with 9 points.
