Brennan Johnson has been carrying an issue of late, ahead of Monday’s game against Fulham, while Manor Solomon recently underwent an operation.

Ivan Perisic is another long-term absentee and Ryan Sessegnon is yet to play this season, whereas Bryan Gil and Giovani Lo Celso returned before the break.

Here is your latest update of Tottenham injuries and return dates...

Rodrigo Bentancur

Ange Postecoglou has joked about having to wrestle Bentancur away from his brief workouts with the Spurs squad as he continues to target a return from his serious knee injury.

Fans were excited for the highly-anticipated comeback last month when the Uruguayan was pictured in the first-team training warm-up.

Bentancur will not return until November, however, with latest reports suggesting he remains on course for that date as he continues to step up his recovery.

Potential return date: November 11, vs Wolves or November 26, vs Aston Villa

A hamstring injury suffered in the north London derby has kept summer signing Johnson out of action for a few weeks, including the current internationals.

Earlier this month, Standard Sport reported that Tottenham are hoping he can return against Fulham. That remains the plan, but him being passed fit is not guaranteed.
