Precautionary Knee Issue Forces Destiny Udogie Out
Tottenham Hotspur left-back Destiny Udogie missed the club’s 3-1 win over Coventry City due to a knee problem sustained during a recent 1-1 draw against Manchester United. The defender was removed after 70 minutes against Manchester United before being left out of the squad entirely for the victory over Coventry.

The absence of Udogie reduces Tottenham’s rotation options on the left side of defense. With the 23-year-old sidelined, manager Roberto De Zerbi is forced to restructure squad depth along the flank while managing the workload of remaining defensive personnel.

player“Udogie played 70 minutes (against Manchester United) and suffered a problem of (the) knee, and we didn’t take a risk alongside the medical staff.”
Udogie has made six appearances across all competitions for Tottenham Hotspur this season, accumulating 283 minutes of action on the pitch prior to his withdrawal.
