Poyet could add to Spurs’ injury woes
The 35-year-old Uruguayan, who is suspended for the opening three games of the new season after a red card in the final game of last term, was injured in last Sunday’s goalless friendly against Sporting Lisbon at White Hart Lane.
If confirmed, Poyet’s injury would be another major blow on top of the news that German wing-back Christian Ziege will be missing even longer following a recurrence of a thigh injury which last season threatened his career. There was even a possibility of amputation after the former Bayern Munich, AC Milan and Liverpool defender was injured against Charlton last Christmas.
