Tottenham boss De Zerbi gives injury update on Solanke and Simons after Wolves win

Solanke was ‌substituted in the 40th minute with ‌a muscular problem, while Simons was replaced in the 63rd minute after suffering ‌a knee issue.

Despite the setbacks, ⁠the 82nd-minute ‌winner from Joao Palhinha secured Tottenham’s first ​league victory in 16 matches at Molineux. Spurs remained 18th ​in the standings with 34 points from 34 games, two points from ⁠safety.

"Solanke has ​a muscular injury. I don't know what level of injury, and for Xavi it's a problem of the ‌knee, and we're going to see in the next days, Monday or Tuesday," De Zerbi told reporters.

"For Solanke, it's not a big problem. I don't know how many games we lose him, but I would like to know the real situation ‌of Xavi, because the knee is ​always different than the muscular injury."

Tottenham, ‌who are facing the prospect of their first relegation from top-flight football since 1977, have four games remaining and next travel to Aston ⁠Villa on ⁠Sunday.
