Giovani Lo Celso is unlikely to play for Tottenham Hotspur until the end of October after sustaining a hip injury on international duty.

Lo Celso, who joined Spurs on a season-long loan from Real Betis in August, suffered the injury in Argentina’s 0-0 draw with Chile on Friday.

Spurs revealed the extent of the damage after his country sent him home early.

The 23-year-old has appeared in three Premier League games, but is yet to start a match for his new club.
