De Zerbi provides positive Tottenham injury update on Xavi Simons and Dominic Solanke

Roberto De Zerbi has now provided an injury update on Dominic Solanke and Xavi Simons following Tottenham’s victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux.

Tottenham Hotspur finally brought an end to their winless run in 2026 with a 1-0 victory over already relegated Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux, a ground they have struggled at in recent games.

It was not the prettiest of wins for Spurs, but it was exactly what they needed to keep their hopes of avoiding relegation alive.

A late strike from Joao Palhinha ensured Tottenham walked away with all three points after a scramble in the box, handing Roberto De Zerbi his first Spurs win after three games.

Unfortunately for the Tottenham boss, though, the victory came at a cost as several players picked up injuries.

Spurs already have nine players sidelined, and that number could rise following injuries to Dominic Solanke and Xavi Simons.

Solanke was forced off before half-time after holding his hamstring, while Simons’ issue looked more serious following a knock to his knee.

Providing an update on both players while speaking to football.london, Roberto De Zerbi explained the nature of the injuries and offered early insight into their severity.

He said: “Solanke a muscular injury, Xavi it’s a problem with his knee. We go to see in the next few days. Solanke it’s not a big problem, I don’t know how many games we lose him.”

Simons, who was the standout performer in the previous gameweek against Brighton, struggled to influence proceedings in the first half. However, in the second forty-five, he began to grow into the match before sustaining his injury.

Speaking further on the midfielder’s condition, De Zerbi highlighted the uncertainty around knee issues while offering a cautious update after speaking with the player.

He said: “I would like to know more about Xavi though because you know the knee, it’s always different to the muscles.

“He felt pain but now I spoke with him and he feels better than the beginning when he got his injury.”

Spurs could, however, welcome first-choice goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario back next week as he continues his recovery from hernia surgery.
