Yesterday, Ange Postecoglou confirmed that winger Manor Solomon has encountered a setback in his recovery, and injury expert Dr. Rajpal Brar has provided additional insights on the situation.
Solomon, who joined Spurs on a free transfer from Shakhtar Donetsk after an impressive loan stint at Fulham, has faced a challenging start to his career at the North London club. His injury woes began in October during training, sidelining him for a total of 16 games, including the recent one against Brentford.
While expectations were initially optimistic for his return in January, he not only has yet to recover but has also experienced a significant setback. According to Dr. Brar, Solomon underwent meniscus repair for his knee injury, but complications have arisen during the recovery process.
In an interview with Tottenham News, Dr. Brar explained that the latest setback is expected to keep Solomon out of action for another month, pushing his anticipated return date to March. He emphasized the complexity of the recovery process and the challenges Solomon faces in returning to training within the given timeline.
Dr. Brar shared his insights, stating, “He had a meniscus injury to his knee and based on the timeline, has had the meniscus repaired. I don’t put too much stock into initial timelines, especially for injuries with extended absences, so the timeline being pushed out initially didn’t surprise me that much. However, he’s suffered a setback from what is a complicated recovery. I reckon he’s likely to be out for another month. It’ll take him some time to get back to training as well.”
