Tottenham Hotspur have a new injury concern. The club announced today that third string keeper Alfie Whiteman is out of action until at least May after injuring his knee in training.
Goalkeeper Alfie Whiteman has undergone surgery to his left knee after tearing his meniscus.
Alfie will now undergo a period of recovery and rehabilitation with a view to returning to training in May.#THFC ⚪️ #COYS Tottenham Hotspur (@SpursOfficial) April 5, 2021
As far as injuries go, this is a lot less consequential for Tottenham than most. A Spurs academy graduate and local boy born in Tottenham, Whiteman made the leap up to Tottenham’s third string keeper position in January after Spurs loaned Paulo Gazzaniga to Elche in January.
