Tottenham Hotspur’s draw against AS Roma in the Europa League on Thursday night ended in huge disappointment for the Lilywhites.

Ange Postecoglou must have thought his side were set to put three points on the board in the European table bef🔯ore Mats Humm𝄹els scored a late equaliser.

The late goal did put a bit of a dent in Tottenham’s Europa League campaign with the north London side now dropping out o༺f the top eight.

Tottenham did come into the game with some considerable injury issues following Guglielmo Vicario’s ankle surgery earlier in the week.

But it is not just the Italy international who was missing with Cristian Romero and Mikey Moore also injured.

One of thei💞r other injury issues has now been spotted at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium after the draw on Thursday night.

Wilson Odobert spotted in crutches after Tottenham draw

After only signing in the summer, Wilson Odobert’s minutes have been extremely limited ☂in north Londo♒n.

Odobert suffered an injury setback last month and it was described by 🎃Postec🌄oglou as a ‘serious one’ during one of his press conferences.

The severity of that was seen by the fans in attendance on Thursday night wh💟o spot💎ted the Frenchman departing the dugout after the game on crutches.

One fan captured the Spurs pꩲlayers walking down the tunnel following the game wi♈th Odobert seen hobbling on his crutches with a significant brace around his right leg.

The injury setback comes as a real blow after Post꧟ecoglou praised Odobert during Totte𝓡nham training earlier in the campaign.

What Tottenham said about Odobert’s injury

Just like Vicario, Odobert has unꦐdergone surgery this month with the winger suffering from a hamstring issue.

After signing from Burnley over the summer, Odobert had only been able to rack up five appearances for Spurs where he was waiting to provide his fꦕirst ✤goal contribution.

‘The 19-year-old will continue to be closely monitored by our medical ☂team to determine when he can return to training,’ read the club’s statement earlier in the month.

James Maddison praised Odobert earlier in 🍸the season but it now looks as if it is going to be a long period of time u♕ntil the pair play together.

The injuries are hitting Sp✨urs hard 🌠with Moore and Odobert marking considerable absentees on the left wing.
