Backup keeper Fraser Forster will stand in as Tottenham prepares to face AC Milan in the Champions League round of 16 next week.
“We are all disappointed about Hugo, he is injured,” Tottenham assistant Cristian Stellini said on Thursday. “But we have a good experienced keeper like Fraser. We have a tough five weeks in front of us.”
The London club is also in contention for a top-four finish in the league and is through to the fifth round of the FA Cup.
“We trust in Fraser,” Stellini said. “Also we say to Hugo, ‘See you soon,’ because he needs a good recovery. He needs maybe five, seven weeks to be back with us.”
