Dominic Solanke’s much-anticipated return to action ended in frustration as he lasted just 20 minutes before limping off in Tottenham’s Europa League last-16 first-leg defeat to AZ Alkmaar.
After two months on the sidelines with a knee injury, the striker was named in the squad for the trip to the Netherlands. Spurs had already fallen behind to an unfortunate own goal from Lucas Bergvall when Dominic Solanke was introduced in the 72nd minute alongside Pape Matar Sarr and Pedro Porro.
Hopes of a successful return quickly faded as Solanke was forced off before the final whistle, raising concerns over a possible setback.
Tottenham Hotspur is expected to provide an official update on his condition in the coming days, with fans eager to hear good news.
Despite his injury struggles, Dominic Solanke has been a key figure in Spurs’ European campaign, registering two goals and two assists in seven appearances this season.
