“Micky Van de Ven Breaks Silence with Injury Update for Spurs Fans on Instagram!”
“Spurs Star Micky Van de Ven Shares Major Injury Update on Instagram”
Micky van de Ven suffered a suspected hamstring injury midweek, with the Spurs defender now providing an update on Instagram.
The incident came during Tottenham’s Carabao Cup match against Manchester City, where manager Ange Postecoglou initially fielded van de Ven as left-back. Unfortunately, his night ended just 14 minutes in when he had to be substituted for Destiny Udogie after feeling a strain.
In his post-game comments, Postecoglou shared, “Micky felt something in his hamstring. I haven’t got the full update on him, but we’ll see how he is.” Sky Sports’ Alan Smith noted that van de Ven’s brief return to the bench could indicate a minor injury.
Physio Scout, a trusted source, suggested that van de Ven might only be out for a short period if the issue is just tightness, but a more severe strain could keep him sidelined for up to six weeks.
Although van de Ven hasn’t confirmed his exact timeline for recovery, his recent Instagram post—a black-and-white photo captioned “Be back soon”—suggests he’s likely to miss at least this weekend’s clash with Aston Villa. Given the tone of his message, a return before the international break seems doubtful, with the Europa League fixture against Roma on November 28 possibly marking his comeback.
