Tottenham striker Dominic Solanke is likely to be out for around six weeks because of a knee injury, Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou said Thursday.
Solanke sustained the injury in training last week and missed the Premier League game against Everton on Sunday and Thursday's Europa League win against Hoffenheim, The Associated Press reported.
“With Dom, the information now is that we are looking at around the six-week mark," Postecoglou said after his team’s 3-2 win in Germany. “No surgery. Maybe we can get him back a little bit earlier, just see how he progresses. But, at this stage, it’s saying around six weeks."
Solanke was a 55 million pounds ($68 million) signing from Bournemouth in the offseason and has scored 11 goals in 29 appearances for Spurs.

Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann has extended his contract with the national team by another two years through the European Championship in 2028.

Nagelsmann had been under contract until next year's World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico.

“All of us together, fans, team and coaching staff, have created something that we now want to keep developing successfully together,” Nagelsmann said in a statement. “We want to win titles together.”

The former Bayern Munich coach took charge of the German national team in September 2023 on what was initially meant to be a short-term basis through last year's European Championship.
