Fans are sending messages of support to Roshaun Mathurin, who has a knee injury that could keep him out of action for nine to 12 months.
The 17-year-old Tweeted on his social media that he tore his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) at the end of August, which will rule him out for up to a year.
The winger has been making good progress for Tottenham after starting in the Lilywhites U16s and making his way up to a successful last season for the U18s.
Mathurin made 27 appearances for the U16s and netted 14 goals in the 2019/20 season and also featured in three U18 games in the same campaign.
