Tottenham Hotspur faces injury crisis and goal drought
Tottenham Hotspur faces a challenging start to the Premier League season under manager Roberto De Zerbi. Despite a summer spending spree exceeding £300 million, the club has yet to score a league goal and sits near the bottom of the table after three matches.
Adding to the difficulties, new loan signing Mykhailo Mudryk has sustained an ankle injury in training. He is expected to be sidelined for six to eight weeks, missing crucial upcoming fixtures against Everton, Liverpool, and Aston Villa. This injury exacerbates existing depth issues in the attacking line, as other players like Dejan Kulusevski and Wilson Odobert also face fitness concerns.
As Tottenham prepares to face an unbeaten Everton, De Zerbi has emphasized the need for a first win to restore squad confidence. The club is also dealing with internal issues, including reports of matchday starting lineups being leaked on social media 24 hours before kick-off.
