“‘Until the new year’: ‘Outstanding’ Tottenham player ruled out until 2025 – journalist”
Tottenham are currently dealing with a growing list of injury concerns.
Tottenham Hotspur are currently dealing with a series of significant injuries to key players.
Guglielmo Vicario is sidelined with an ankle injury sustained against Manchester City, while Cristian Romero aggravated his injury during the recent match against Chelsea.
Additionally, Richarlison will be out until the new year with a separate injury.
Such injuries often provide opportunities for young talents to step up, and this season, Mikey Moore had been one of the players getting his chance.
However, Moore has recently been battling a virus that has kept him out of action, and it appears that this issue will continue to sideline him for some time.
According to Dan Kilpatrick, speaking on The Tottenham Way Podcast, Moore is expected to be unavailable until the new year due to the energy-draining nature of his illness.
Kilpatrick highlighted the significance of this setback for Moore, who had previously been praised as “outstanding” in his appearances for the team.
This extended absence is a frustrating blow to the young player’s development, especially during a crucial period for the club.
Kilpatrick shared the latest information on Moore, stating: “You consider at the moment that Vicario is out with a contact injury, Romero is out with a contact injury, Bentancur is suspended — that’s an anomaly if you like — and Mikey Moore is recovering from an energy-sapping virus. So, he will be out until the new year.”
Which other Tottenham youngsters could get a chance?
While Moore will be out until 2025, Spurs’ ongoing injury crisis and packed fixture schedule may present more opportunities for young players to step in.
Tottenham’s upcoming fixtures include several important matches, with games scheduled nearly every week throughout December and early January:
12th December – UEFA Europa League: Rangers (H) 21:00
15th December – Premier League: Southampton (H) 20:00
19th December – League Cup: Man Utd (H) 21:00
22nd December – Premier League: Liverpool (H) 17:30
26th December – Premier League: Nottm Forest (A) 16:00
29th December – Premier League: Wolves (H) 16:00
4th January – Premier League: Newcastle (A) 13:30
11th January – FA Cup: Tamworth (H) 16:00
With multiple key players injured, there could be more openings for young players in the coming weeks.
Lucas Bergvall and Archie Gray have been waiting for their opportunity, and the busy schedule could see more U21 players called up to fill gaps.
One player who might get a chance is Will Lankshear, a highly-rated forward who could be given an opportunity up front as Spurs face a congested fixture list.
With Romero a doubt, Van de Ven not fully fit, and Ben Davies injured, Alfie Dorrington could also be in line for a spot in the defense.
While Mikey Moore’s absence is unfortunate, it could pave the way for other promising young talents to make their mark for Spurs in the near future.
