Tottenham forward Manor Solomon has had his meniscus repaired, but according to Dr Rajpal Brar, there have been complications in his recovery.
According to the injury specialist, the Israeli international is likely to be out for another month, which means he will return in March.
Ange Postecoglou confirmed this week that the 24-year-old’s recovery has hit a few snags.
Speaking exclusively to Tottenham News about the state of play with Solomon, Dr Brar, a physiotherapist and sports scientist, said: ‘He had a meniscus injury in his knee and according to the timetable he has the meniscus repaired.
“I don’t put too much stock in initial timelines, especially for injuries with a longer absence, so I wasn’t that surprised by the initial rescheduled timeline.
“However, it has suffered a setback in a complicated recovery.
“I think he will probably be out for another month.
“He will also need some time to return to training.”
The 24-year-old has not had a real chance of success at Tottenham Hotspur this season under the guidance of Ange Postecoglou.
He has made just two Premier League appearances and played just 198 minutes in five league appearances.
He still hasn’t registered as a goal scorer or registered an assist for Spurs this season, so he will be hoping to improve his record when he returns to full fitness.
The Israeli international is predominantly a left winger, but has also played on the right wing for his country.
