No Xavi Simons, No Problem! Roberto De Zerbi Told to Unleash OUTSTANDING Star Nicknamed Tottenham’s New Luka Modrić

Roberto De Zerbi’s Tottenham Hotspur suffered a major setback in their fight to avoid relegation from the Premier League on Saturday.

A dramatic late winner for West Ham United against Everton ensured Spurs remained stuck in the bottom three, failing to make up ground on 17th place. To make matters worse, the North London side also picked up injury concerns involving Xavi Simons and Dominic Solanke.

Both players were forced off during the 1-0 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers. Solanke exited in the 40th minute with a muscular issue, although De Zerbi later suggested it may not be serious, stopping short of confirming how long the striker could be sidelined.

Simons’ situation appears more concerning. The Dutch midfielder was stretchered off in the second half with a knee injury, leaving Spurs anxiously awaiting updates on his condition for the remainder of the campaign.

Speaking after the match, De Zerbi admitted he could not provide a clear assessment of Simons’ injury, given how recently it had occurred. The setback comes just a week after the £52 million signing from RB Leipzig impressed with a stunning goal against Brighton & Hove Albion, making the timing of the injury all the more frustrating for Spurs.
