Hamstring heartbreak for Solanke
Doubt has been cast over Solanke’s involvement inTottenham’scrucialPremier Leaguerun-in because of the hamstring injury he sufferedagainst Wolves.
As perThe Telegraph, early scans have suggested that the forward may have suffered a grade-two hamstring injury, which can take between three and eight weeks to recover from.

Injury list continues to grow
Despite winning their first league game of 2026 against Wolves, Spurs remain in the relegation zone, two points behindWest Ham United.
Xavi Simons will miss the rest of the seasonand is expected to be out for a minimum of seven months after suffering an anteria cruciate ligament injury in the Wolves game and undergoing surgery, meaning he is unlikely to play again before December.
Other than Simons and the doubts over Solanke, De Zerbi is already withoutMohammed Kudus,Dejan Kulusevski,Wilson OdobertandCristian Romerofor the rest of the season.
James Maddisonis also still waiting for his first minutes after returning to training from a year out with two knee injuries, leaving the squad paper-thin for the battles ahead.
De Zerbi faces selection nightmare
De Zerbi will address Solanke’s fitness in his press conference on Friday and will no doubt be hoping the 28-year-old will be able to play an active part in the run-in.
Tottenham’s final four games are againstAston Villaon Sunday,Leeds United,ChelseaandEverton.
Losing another attacker for any of those matches would be a significant setback for De Zerbi.
The game against Chelsea has been rescheduled to Tuesday, May 19 because the Stamford Bridge club’s involvement in the FA Cup final on Saturday, May 16.

World Cup dreams in jeopardy
A season-ending injury now would also be a massive blow to Solanke’s hopes of going to the World Cup with England asHarry Kane’s deputy.
The striker was said to be in the running for a spot in Thomas Tuchel’s squad, but a lengthy lay-off would force the German coach to look elsewhere.
