Rodrigo Bentancur, who reportedly tore his anterior cruciate ligament against Leicester, will be out of action for Tottenham for at least six months.
Rodrigo Bentancur, who scored the game’s first goal as Tottenham lost 4-1, was allowed to leave the field, but he did so with his head in his hands when he realized the extent of the harm.
The Evening Standard have reported that Bentancur is now set to be out until August at the earliest – bringing his 2022-23 season to a premature end.
