Tottenham's Odobert undergoes hamstring surgery

Tottenham have confirmed that Wilson Odobert has undergone surgery for a hamstring injury.

The 19-year-old joined Spurs from Burnley in August and made five appearances in all competitions for the north London side.

He managed just 162 minutes in his three Premier League matches, creating three chances in that time, but has not featured in the competition since their 1-0 loss to Arsenal in mid-September.

His last appearance was a two-minute cameo in the Europa League group stage amid ongoing hamstring problems.

"We can confirm that Wilson Odobert underwent surgery to his right hamstring yesterday (Saturday 16th November)," Spurs said on social media.

"The 19-year-old will continue to be closely monitored by our medical team to determine when he can return to training."
