Tottenham Confirm : Nigerian Midfielder To Undergo Surgery Next Week, Out For The Season
Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed via their official website that Nigerian starlet Luke Amos has been ruled out for the season after rupturing an anterior cruciate ligament in a Premier League 2 clash against Blackburn Rovers on September 28.

The central midfielder had to make way for Lloyd-Bennett in the 21st minute following the serious injury and the club have announced that he will undergo surgery next week.

Amos had been tipped to break into Spurs first team squad after emerging one of their standout performers during pre-season in the United States, where he started games against Roma, Barcelona and AC Milan.

The 21-year-old made his professional debut on the opening day of the season against Newcastle United and was on the bench for the 3-0 win against Manchester United.

He was rewarded with a new contract in August 2018 which will keep him at Spurs until June 2021.

Amos previously enjoyed loan spells at  Southend United and  Stevenage.
