J. Vertonghen suffered a hamstring injury

Yesterday it was revealed that "Tottenham" defender Jan Vertonghen injured his ankle ligaments in the 4-0 victory in the match against "West Bromwich".

On Tuesday, the Belgian national team member underwent exams, but the time he will have to spend off the field is not yet clear.

The 29-year-old footballer suffered the injury after playing for a little over an hour in the match and he had to receive assistance immediately.

After the game, "Spurs" coach Mauricio Pochettino described Vertonghen's injury as "very bad".

It is expected that the coach will reveal more details about the defender's injury at tomorrow's press conference, dedicated to the upcoming match against "Manchester City".

At the moment, the capital club is in second place in the "Premier League", so the loss of an important player could be particularly painful.
