Tottenham’s Ben Davies suffered a calf injury recently, forcing him out for the rest of the season, but the latest update from injury expert Dr. Rajpal Brar suggests surgery might not be necessary, providing a boost for the player.
Key Points:
- Injury Occurrence: Ben Davies sustained a calf injury while starting in the left-back position against Arsenal, filling in for the absent Destiny Udogie. The injury occurred during the match, leading to his substitution.
- Ange’s Confirmation: Manager Ange Postecoglou confirmed Davies’ injury in a press conference before the Chelsea game, ruling him out for the remainder of the season due to the seriousness of the injury.
- Positive Update from Dr. Brar: According to injury expert Dr. Rajpal Brar, while Davies’ injury is significant, surgery may not be necessary. Proper rehabilitation could see him regain fitness in time for the pre-season, providing a boost for both the player and the club.
- Rehabilitation Outlook: Dr. Brar emphasized the importance of appropriate rehabilitation for Davies, indicating that a clearer picture of the injury’s severity and the need for surgery may emerge in the first or second week of June.
- Impact on Tottenham: With Davies sidelined, Tottenham faces a shortage of left-back options. Ange was forced to deploy Emerson Royal against Liverpool, with midfielder Oliver Skipp eventually filling in. Skipp may continue in the inverted left-back role for the remaining matches.
As Tottenham navigates the final games of the season without Davies, the potential avoidance of surgery offers hope for his timely return and strengthens the team’s options heading into the pre-season.
