Tottenham’s Champions League hopes have been hit with a huge blow with the news that Moussa Sissoko looks likely to miss the semi-final first leg against Ajax.
The midfielder, who is a candidate for the club’s player of the season, suffered a groin injury in the quarter-final second-leg match at Manchester City and has been ruled out by boss Mauricio Pochettino for two weeks.
That would mean he misses the home leg of their last-four tie on April 30, a game which another star Son Heung-min, who has stepped up in Harry Kane’s absence, is also suspended for.
