DBasia.news – Tottenham Hotspur had to lose their new player, Steven Bergwijn, due to an injury. Bergwijn is predicted to be pulled over for a while.
Steven Bergwijn’s injury came after Tottenham Hotspur faced Burnley in the continued Premier League last weekend. Throughout the match he had experienced problems with his leg.
And sure enough, after the inspection, the midfielder injured his left ankle. The club confirmed that the player brought in from PSV Eindhoven needed a long recovery time.
“After an examination by the medical team, we can confirm that Steven Bergwijn has suffered a serious sprain in his left ankle during the match against Burnley,” wrote Spurs’ official statement, Monday (09/03).
