Tottenham left-back Destiny Udogie has shared a positive injury update following his early exit during the team’s 3-0 win over Manchester United at Old Trafford.
The 21-year-old got substituted at half-time after appearing to pull up during a sprint in the first half. Djed Spence replaced him, raising initial concerns about the defender’s fitness.
However, in his post-match press conference, manager Ange Postecoglou reassured fans that the decision to take Udogie off was purely precautionary. The Italian felt a slight discomfort in his quad, and the coaching staff decided not to take any risks.
Following the match, Udogie took to social media to address his condition, providing fans with a comforting update.
He posted a picture of himself with the caption: “Coming back to London with 3 points. Sure I’ll be okay!”
This update has eased the fears of many Spurs supporters, who have come to appreciate Udogie’s growing importance in the squad.
Despite Udogie’s substitution, Djed Spence came off the bench and put in a solid second-half performance. His display justified Postecoglou’s decision to keep him during the summer transfer window, and Spence’s reliable showing added much-needed depth to Tottenham’s defensive line-up.
With Udogie’s reassuring injury update, Tottenham fans will hope to see the talented left-back return quickly as the team continues its excellent form under Postecoglou.
Having secured four consecutive wins across all competitions, Spurs are building momentum, and the availability of key players like Udogie will be crucial in maintaining their impressive run.
