HUGE BLOW! Latest injury update confirms 23-year-old star is completely ruled out of Wolves clash

Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly been dealt another injury concern ahead of Saturday’s crucial Premier League showdown with Wolverhampton Wanderers, with Destiny Udogie now considered a doubt.

Spurs head to Molineux still chasing their first league victory of 2026 after an alarming run that has seen them fail to win any of their opening 15 top-flight matches this year. That poor form has dragged them down to 18th in the table, two points behind West Ham United, who face Everton at the same time on Saturday.

For Roberto De Zerbi’s side, escaping the relegation zone this weekend will require both a win and a slip-up from West Ham, although their superior goal difference could work in their favour. However, the Italian coach is already dealing with a lengthy injury list.

Guglielmo Vicario, Wilson Odobert, Dejan Kulusevski, Cristian Romero, Mohammed Kudus and Ben Davies are all sidelined, and reports now suggest Udogie could join them on the treatment table.

The nature of the left-back’s latest issue has not been disclosed, but he is said to be a doubt for gameweek 34, continuing a frustrating season disrupted by fitness problems. Udogie has made 24 appearances in all competitions this term, having missed 21 matches due to two knee injuries and two hamstring setbacks, only returning in mid-March.

He completed 90 minutes in De Zerbi’s first match in charge—a 1-0 defeat to Sunderland—and followed that up with 76 minutes in last weekend’s 2-2 draw against Brighton. While his substitution initially appeared tactical, it is now believed he may have picked up a fresh issue during that game, which marked just his 10th Premier League start of the season.

Since joining Spurs, the 23-year-old has missed 46 matches for club and country through injury, though he has still contributed two goals and five assists in 90 appearances when fit.

Tottenham have often had to cope without Udogie, but his potential absence still presents a challenge for De Zerbi, particularly with Davies also unavailable. Djed Spence is the most likely replacement, having regularly filled in at left-back during Udogie’s previous spells out.

January signing Souza is another option, though the 19-year-old has not featured in the last two matchday squads. Alternatively, De Zerbi could shift Micky van de Ven to the left side of defence, partnering Kevin Danso with Radu Dragusin centrally, but Spence remains the most straightforward solution if Udogie is ruled out.
