One of the main reasons why Tottenham Hotspur are having one of the toughest seasons in their recent history is due to the constant injuries they have suffered this season.

Ange Postecoglou has been given the tall task of ensuring Spurs get results on the board despite misꦐsing some of his most trusted men.

James Ma🍸ddison un⭕derstands Tottenham fans’ frustrations as they sit in 15th place in the Premier League table and wereಌ well-beaten in 𝕴their latest 3-2 defeat against Everton.

But the number of key players the𝓀 Lilywhites were missing against⛄ David Moyes’ side cannot be ignored.

In total, 𒁃10 Tot♍tenham players were sidelined through injury against Everton.

The status of Yves Bissouma’s injury has now been revealed.

Yves Bissouma ruled out after suffering hamstring injury

Bissouma has come under criticism as his form has been unconvincing this season.

Tottenham could be ready to sell Bissouma, whose time in a Lilywhites shirt since making a £25 million () move fro💙m Brighton & Hove Albion in 2022 has been a mixed bag.

Now, jour🌟nalist Paul O’Keefe has confirmed that the Malian midfielder has suffered a “slight hamstring strain.”

Tot💮tenham are awaiting more results from scans to determine the full extent of Bissouma’s injury.

Paul O’Keefe went on tಞo reveal to a fan in his comments section that Tottenham do not th🎃ink the Spurs midfielder’s injury is a “major”, claiming that he could return to action in two to three weeks.

“They don’t think it’s major – or at least h❀ope. Maybe two t𝔉o three weeks.”

O’Keefe♔ added: “I was actually told at the weekend💦. Been checking and told hammy issue.”

Tottenham’s pꦆlayers have complaints about Postecoglou’s training demands and these noises might not die down as Bissouma is set to spend a few weeks on 🐓the injury table as well.

The six games Yves Bissouma could miss for Tottenham after latest injury

It goes without saying that Bissouma is ce🐼rtainly set to miss Tottenham’s next game in the Europa League against Hoffenheim.

If the former Seagulls technician takes three weeks to get back to full fitness, he could miss Spurs’ ne♌xt two league games against Leicester City and Brentford,

In his absence, it will be interesting to see whether Ange Postecoglou persists with a double𝄹 pivot of Lucas Bergvall🌌 and Pape Matar Sarr.

Bissouma could also miss crucial fiꦺxtures against IF Elsborg, Aston Villa in the FA Cup and Liverpool in the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final.

However, if the Tottenham stalwart is injured for just two weeks, he would onl𓆉y be sidelined for four matches in all competitions.

Ange Postecoglou would be hoping that Bissouma is fit as the job of getting wins under his belt as injuries mount up in such an unprecedented manner is ﷽a virtually impossible task for any manager.
