Mohammed Kudus is likely to be unavailable for Tottenham’s trip to Bournemouth on Wednesday after undergoing a scan on a thigh injury sustained against Sunderland.
Kudus went down off the ball, clutching his left thigh, and received treatment on the pitch before being replaced by Randal Kolo Muani in the 19th minute.
Thomas Frank confirmed in his pre-match press conference that the 25-year-old had undergone a scan to determine the severity of the issue and said he was unlikely to travel with the squad to the Vitality Stadium.
“He's going for a scan here, 1 o'clock, to clarify the issue. So unfortunately, I don't have a big update on it,” the Tottenham boss said.
In Kudus’ absence, Spurs will travel to Bournemouth without a natural right winger, and after an impressive cameo against Sunderland, Kolo Muani again looks set to deputise for the Ghanaian.
Mathys Tel also impressed on the left wing, and he could be in line to make just his fifth Premier League start of the season on the south coast.
There are decisions to be made in midfield, with Lucas Bergvall returning from injury against Sunderland.
Frank likes Bergvall, particularly for his ability to stretch the play in behind.
However, with Xavi Simons back from suspension after serving a three-game ban following his sending off against Liverpool, the Swede will likely remain on the bench.
Dominic Solanke remains unavailable despite returning to training last week, but Destiny Udogie might make the matchday squad as he steps up his recovery from a hamstring injury.
“He [Udogie] is training and he's looking better, so that's positive,” Frank said. “No [Solanke won't be involved against Bournemouth]. Positive, going forward."
