Tottenham star James Maddison is reportedly a doubt for pre-season following the knee injury which has ended his campaign.
Mail Sport reported on Monday that Maddison was unlikely to play again this season after he damaged a knee in the first leg of their Europa League semi-final against Bodo/Glimt.
Ange Postecoglou said after Sunday’s 1-1 draw at West Ham that it was ‘not looking promising’ for Maddison.
According to the BBC, Maddison’s knee injury is expected to keep the England international out until July.
The midfielder will reportedly not have to undergo surgery having suffered suspected ligament damage.
While Maddison is expected to be a doubt for the start of pre-season due to the three month recovery time, the 28-year-old should be fit in time for the start of the new campaign.

The loss of Maddison is a major blow to Tottenham’s hopes of success in the Europa League.
Maddison has been influential in the competition for Ange Postecoglou’s side and scored their second goal in the 3-1 semi-final first leg win over Bodo/Glimt last week.
Midfielder Lucas Bergvall suffered an ankle injury on the eve of the first leg which has ruled him out of the rest of the season.
Captain Son Heung-min has missed the last four games with a foot injury. Son has been training alone and is a doubt for the trip to Norway.
Dominic Solanke, also forced off against Bodo/Glimt, missed the draw at West Ham but is confident of being fit for Thursday.
