Tottenham defender Eric Dier undergoes groin surgery
Tottenham Hotspur's Eric Dier (29) has undergone groin surgery and will miss their final Premier League game of the season at Leeds United on Sunday, the club said.
The Englishman has played 42 games in all competitions this season for Tottenham, who are eighth in the league on 57 points, 12 adrift of the top four.
"The defender will commence rehabilitation with our medical staff before joining up with the squad ahead of the start of pre-season," Tottenham said in a statement on Wednesday.
Who will manage Dier and his Tottenham team-mates next season is very much unclear with frontrunner Arne Slot deciding to remain at Feyenoord.
The Dutchman's decision was undoubtedly influenced by the fact that Spurs will be playing in the Conference League at best and could yet miss out on European football altogether. With one game to go, they're in eighth, one point behind Aston Villa.
