Igor Tudor reveals big Djed Spence news in latest Tottenham injury update

Igor Tudor faces another pivotal night in north London, and with Crystal Palace next up, the Tottenham Hotspur head coach has offered the latest squad injury news.

Tottenham Hotspur are still searching for their first Premier League win of 2026 after what has been a disappointing year so far.

The last time Spurs secured a league victory was in December, in a 1-0 win over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park courtesy of a goal from Archie Gray.

With the Eagles visiting the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Thursday night, Tudor will hope to replicate Thomas Frank’s success in this fixture earlier in the campaign.

While Tudor continues his search for a first win as Tottenham manager and battles to keep Spurs in the Premier League, the injury situation remains critical for Spurs.

The usual absentees are still sidelined, although there is hope that a few will return later this month, with Rodrigo Bentancur and Mohammed Kudus among those pencilled in for March, while Lucas Bergvall and Dejan Kulusevski are progressing and racing against time to regain fitness.

Cristian Romero is serving his final match ban in this matchup after the red card he received against Manchester United three games ago.

James Maddison and Ben Davies remain out, Wilson Odobert is expected to miss the rest of the season with an ACL injury, and Destiny Udogie is also managing a hamstring problem.

Meanwhile, Djed Spence has joined the injury list, having picked up a calf issue ahead of last weekend’s clash with Fulham, while Kevin Danso and Pedro Porro returned to league action at the weekend in a boost on the fitness front.

Tudor has now provided an update on the squad’s condition. Speaking to Football London, he said: ” Djed Spence is out. Kevin Danso came back in the last game. (Udogie and Kulusevski?) No other news.

When asked when Spence will be back, Tudor added: “We hope for the Champions League game.”
