Experienced Tottenham goalkeeper Michel Vorm has been ruled out until December after suffering a calf injury during training on Monday.
The 36-year-old Dutchman, who signed on a deal until the end of the season after first-choice goalkeeper Hugo Lloris suffered a dislocated shoulder during the defeat at Brighton & Hove Albion last month, is yet to feature since returning to Spurs, but had been on the bench for the previous two Premier League games against Everton and Sheffield United.
Prior to Jose Mourinho’s pre-West Ham press conference, the club tweeted: “Michael Vorm sustained a calf straight in training on Monday and is expected to return to training next month.”
With Lloris still out until 2019, Paulo Gazzaniga is Tottenham’s only recognised senior goalkeeper, meaning either Alfie Whiteman or Brandon Austin are likely to be on the bench when Spurs travel to the London Stadium tomorrow lunchtime to face the Hammers in the Premier League.
