Tottenham Hotspur have suffered a major blow ahead of a demanding run of fixtures after it was confirmed that Mohammed Kudus will be sidelined until after the March 2026 international break.

The 25-year-old Ghana international picked up a quad and tendon injury during Spurs’ 1–1 draw with Sunderland, forcing him to leave the pitch in the first half. Medical scans later confirmed the seriousness of the injury, prompting head coach Thomas Frank to describe it as a “bigger” setback that requires careful management before Kudus can return to full training.

As a result, Kudus is expected to miss 13 matches across all competitions, stretching Tottenham’s squad depth during one of the busiest periods of their season. His absence will be felt in the Premier League, UEFA Champions League, and FA Cup, where Spurs face several high-profile opponents.

Tottenham must now navigate crucial league encounters against Manchester City, Manchester United, Newcastle United, Arsenal, Liverpool, and Nottingham Forest, alongside additional Premier League fixtures versus West Ham, Burnley, Fulham, and Crystal Palace. In Europe, Spurs are scheduled to host Borussia Dortmund before travelling to face Eintracht Frankfurt, while their FA Cup journey continues with a tie against Aston Villa.

With one of their most dynamic attacking options unavailable, Tottenham’s tactical flexibility and resilience will be put to the test as they aim to remain competitive on all fronts.
