Tottenham Injury Blow: Rodrigo Bentancur Has Hamstring Surgery and Could Miss Up to Three Months

Tottenham have suffered a major setback after confirming Rodrigo Bentancur has undergone surgery on his right hamstring. The midfielder now starts a rehabilitation program, with reports suggesting he may be out for up to three months. 

Bentancur’s injury came in Tottenham’s recent 3–2 Premier League defeat to Bournemouth, and his absence adds to a difficult spell for Spurs, who have already been dealing with multiple key players missing. 

Why this is big news for Tottenham

• Midfield balance: Bentancur is one of Spurs’ best options for ball progression and defensive coverage.
• Squad pressure: Tottenham’s injury list has been growing, forcing more rotation and reliance on depth. 
• Season momentum: Spurs are sitting 14th in the Premier League, and consistency has been hard to find.
