Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed that Xavi Simons has suffered a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his right knee, in what is a major setback for the club.
The injury occurred during a recent match, with the midfielder forced off after appearing to be in discomfort. Subsequent medical assessments have now confirmed the severity of the damage, ruling him out for an extended period.
An ACL injury is one of the most serious setbacks a footballer can face, typically requiring surgery followed by several months of rehabilitation. As a result, Simons is expected to miss a significant portion of the season while focusing on recovery.
His absence will be a big loss for Tottenham, given his influence in attack and ability to drive the team forward. The club will now have to adjust plans as they cope without one of their key creative players.
Tottenham have expressed their support for Simons and are expected to provide him with full medical and rehabilitation assistance as he begins the road to recovery.
