Just when things started to look bright for Tottenham Hotspur under Thomas Frank — thanks to a 2-0 win over Brentford — an official injury announcement came out from the Danish manager in regards to Italian left back Destiny Udogie.
According to football.London’s Alasdair Gold, Frank spoke on the injury update for Udogie and others in his weekly press conference as the side prepares for a Champions League home match with Slavia Prague, tomorrow.
Playing well since his return into the squad for Djed Spence at left back, Udogie had played in six of the last seven matches for the side before picking up that hamstring injury in the 2-2 draw at St. James’ Park midweek.
Hampered by leg injuries since coming to north London, Udogie when he is on the pitch has shown strides to help the team show attacking promise with being a true left footed footballer on the left side of the pitch. But, the injuries have hampered him a bit and with that, Spurs are forced to go back to Spence at left back for the coming weeks.
