Tottenham Hotspur have announced that Rodrigo Bentancur has undergone surgery on his right hamstring. The 28-year-old midfielder suffered the muscle injury during Spurs' 3-2 defeat to Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium earlier this month.
Bentancur will now begin rehabilitation with medical staff at Hotspur Way. In an official statement on X, formerly known as Twitter, the Lilywhites announced the procedure and said: "We're all with you, Lolo [white heart emoji]."
The Uruguay international was replaced by Archie Gray towards the end of the clash on the south coast. Shortly after Bentancur came off, Antoine Semenyo, who joined Manchester City a couple of days later, fired the Cherries ahead to clinch three crucial points.
