Spurs conduct major review into injury crisis with stadium's retractable pitch one area investigated

Spurs have carried out a major review of their performance and medical departments, which included an investigation into whether the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium's retractable pitch is contributing to the club's ongoing injury crisis.

Tottenham lost the most days to injury of any Premier League side this season, while Spurs players missed a combined 370 games across all competitions due to injury this campaign - the most of any top-flight side.

The club's failure to keep players fit nearly led to their relegation as Roberto De Zerbi's side dramatically needed a final-day home win over Everton to secure their Premier League safety.

It is a second consecutive injury-hit season for Spurs, who have lost the most days and games to injury of any Premier League side since the start of the 2024/25 campaign.

A lengthy injury list has played its part in back-to-back 17th-placed finishes for the world's ninth-richest football club.
