Tottenham goalkeeper Hugo Lloris will be out for a long time with his club due to injury.
The Telegraph newspaper reported that Lloris will be out for a period ranging from 6 to 8 weeks after suffering a knee injury in the Manchester City match.
Tests confirmed that Hugo had damaged the ligaments in his knee and would now need a period of recovery.
Tottenham are hopeful that Lloris can recover without the need for surgery, so the medical team will continue to check him regularly.
Initial expectations indicated that Lloris might miss the rest of the season, but Tottenham hope that the Frenchman can return within two months at the most.
A few days ago, the club stated that its coach, Antonio Conte, would miss leading his team in the upcoming matches, due to undergoing surgery.
And the English club said in a statement: “Antonio Conte has recently developed severe abdominal pain.”
"After being diagnosed with cholecystitis, Conte will undergo cholecystectomy on Wednesday and will return after a period of convalescence," he added.
"Everyone at the club wishes Antonio all the best," the statement concluded.
Conte's assistant, Christian Stellini, is overseeing Tottenham's training in his absence.
For its part, The Athletic Network reported that Conte will be absent from Tottenham for a period of nearly two months.
Thus, the Italian coach may be absent from his team in at least 9 matches after undergoing surgery.
Tottenham will play its next matches against Leicester City, West Ham United, Chelsea, Wolverhampton, Nottingham Forest and Southampton in the English Premier League and Milan twice in the Champions League.
Tottenham ranks fifth in the English Premier League, while it plays against AC Milan in the Champions League round of 16.
