Tottenham Hotspur Injury Update; Maddison, Savio, Udogie

Tottenham’s victory over Chelsea has lifted the mood around the club; successive league wins have offered encouragement after a difficult start, making key players' availability increasingly important as Spurs look to build momentum.

James Maddison’s withdrawal at Stamford Bridge provided an unwelcome reminder of the challenges that remain. Having only recently returned to the starting line-up, the midfielder is again a concern, as Tottenham continue to manage other absences across the squad.

With Crystal Palace next, De Zerbi faces the familiar task of balancing available players and longer-term recovery. Supporters will hope the coming days bring reassurance on Maddison and clearer indications of when Destiny Udogie and Savio could return, as Tottenham seek a third win in a row.

James Maddison faces assessment early this week after suffering a suspected groin injury during Tottenham’s 2-0 victory at Chelsea. Making his second start in six days, the midfielder pulled up early in the second half, and Conor Gallagher replaced him. Roberto De Zerbi expressed hope that the problem was not serious, but further medical checks were required. Maddison was seen walking freely afterwards, but his availability against Crystal Palace remains uncertain, with no confirmed return date.

Destiny Udogie remains sidelined with a knee problem sustained against Manchester United, having missed Tottenham’s victories over Coventry and Chelsea. Roberto De Zerbi said the defender hasn't been able to train since the Old Trafford fixture, with medical staff assessing his recovery. Although the manager previously suggested a possible return against Crystal Palace, his availability remains uncertain.

Tosin missed Tottenham’s victory over Chelsea after a suspected calf injury cut short his impressive display against Coventry. Roberto De Zerbi initially downplayed concerns, but the defender was later absent from the squad. A return against Crystal Palace on October 31 remains likely.

Lucas Bergvall is recovering from a knee problem sustained against Manchester United. The midfielder completed that match but subsequently experienced discomfort. October 31 against Crystal Palace is a potential return date.

Savio remains sidelined with a muscle injury, and the exact nature of the problem and his recovery timeline remain unclear. November 21 against Ipswich is a potential return date. However, this remains provisional, with no confirmation of whether the winger could feature before the next international break.

Mykhailo Mudryk remains sidelined with an ankle injury, with updates on his recovery limited. November 21 against Ipswich is a potential return date. De Zerbi previously confirmed the injury as “stupid”

Xavi Simons and Wilson Odobert continue recovering from ACL injuries. Simons has shared footage working with a ball but is not expected back until January. Odobert is reportedly progressing well after surgery, with a possible return in December.

Tottenham host Crystal Palace on Saturday, October 31, with kick-off at 5.30pm UK time. Roberto De Zerbi’s side will aim for a third consecutive Premier League win after beating Coventry and Chelsea.
