Tottenham\u2019s Dominic Solanke is currently sidelined due to a lingering ankle problem that required minor surgery.<\/p>\n
The club officially confirmed he would go under the knife for a \u201csmall procedure\u201d to correct the issue.<\/p>\n
Manager Thomas Frank said after surgery that he doesn\u2019t expect Solanke to be out \u201cfor too long,\u201d but there\u2019s no firm return date yet.<\/p>\n
Solanke himself posted that the operation was successful and expressed hope that he\u2019ll be back \u201cin the very near future.\u201d<\/p>\n
According to Frank, Solanke is \u201cprogressing well,\u201d but he\u2019s still training on his own, which suggests he\u2019s not quite ready to rejoin full team activity.<\/p>\n
More concerningly, Solanke recently said he is not putting a timeline on his recovery, admitting the injury and rehab have been frustrating. Bottom line: Solanke didn\u2019t play today because he\u2019s still recovering from ankle surgery, and his return is not yet certain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
