Is Tottenham Hotspur striker Dominic Solanke injured? Premier League injury update

Dominic Solanke has been making a big impact for Tottenham Hotspur since his move from Bournemouth in the summer. The 27-year-old striker has scored six goals in all competitions so far and is working hard to show why Tottenham paid £65 million for him. He has been starting most of the Premier League games, even keeping Richarlison out of the starting lineup. However, Solanke was not part of the team for the 1-1 draw against Fulham, leading many fans and Fantasy Premier League players to wonder if he will play against his old team, Bournemouth, on Thursday.

Manager Ange Postecoglou gave an update on Solanke’s situation, saying that Solanke had trained the day before the Fulham game but was feeling unwell and not fit to play. Postecoglou mentioned that Solanke had arrived at the stadium ready to try and play but looked unwell, so he was sent home. The manager clarified that Solanke’s issue was illness, not an injury. Postecoglou expressed hope that Solanke would be ready for the Bournemouth match after recovering from the illness.

In the post-match press conference after the draw with Fulham, Postecoglou confirmed that Solanke had trained the day before, but his illness had made him too sick to play. The manager stated that they would have to wait and see how quickly Solanke recovers, but he hoped the issue was not too serious. Postecoglou’s comments suggested that Solanke’s condition was not too worrying, and he may be able to play soon. Since Solanke was not involved in the Fulham match, many believe he should be fit for the upcoming game against Bournemouth.

Solanke will be eager to face his former team, Bournemouth, but it is unclear whether he will celebrate if he scores. He will likely want to prove himself against his old club and show why Tottenham spent so much to bring him in. Whether or not he plays will depend on how quickly he recovers from his illness, but it seems likely that he will be available for the match. Fans will be keeping an eye on his recovery, hoping that the illness is not too serious and that he can get back to full fitness in time for the game.
