Thomas Frank provides an update on Destiny Udogie's injury as Tottenham faces a crisis with NO PLAYERS available for the Newcastle match.
The Italian left-back, who recently recovered from a hamstring injury, is now joined by Cristian Romero, who will be suspended for the next four league games. This leaves Tottenham with a depleted defense, as Frank reveals Udogie's injury will be assessed over the weekend.
During the post-match press conference, Frank hinted at Udogie's condition, stating, 'We will assess him tomorrow, and then we'll know more.' When asked about the availability of the 10 first-team players who missed the Old Trafford trip, Frank was pessimistic, saying, 'Off the top of my head, no.'
Despite the setback, Tottenham managed to hold United to a draw, with Souza making his Premier League debut after Udogie's withdrawal. Frank praised his team's resilience, acknowledging their struggle to secure wins in the league since the turn of the year.
'I think the players are showing a lot of resilience,' Frank said. 'It's tough to consistently perform without achieving the desired results.' However, he also emphasized the need for better performance and execution to turn things around.
'We haven't won enough in the Premier League,' Frank admitted. 'But we've shown resilience in recent games. We just need to do a little more and make the right choices to secure the wins we deserve.'
