Van de Ven shares three-word Tottenham injury update in new message
Tottenham defender Micky van de Ven has taken to social media to let fans know he is “on the way” to his much-awaited injury comeback.
The 23-year-old picked up a hamstring injury in Tottenham’s 2-1 League Cup win over Man City on 30th October and has since missed their last six games across all competitions.
Van de Ven was a key figure for Spurs before his injury, completing the full 90 minutes in all but one of his eight Premier League appearances. His only reprieve came in the 3-0 victory over Manchester United, where he was substituted in the 81st minute.
The centre-back has made ten appearances across all competitions since the start of the season, popping up with two assists in 815 minutes of action.
