Tottenham Hotspur midfielder James Maddison will miss most of the new season after injuring his anterior cruciate knee ligament, Britain's BBC reported on Thursday.
Maddison suffered the injury during a pre-season game against Newcastle United, also in the English Premier League, and was taken off on a stretcher. Manager Thomas Frank said it was the same knee the 28-year-old had injured before, the BBC reported.
A knee injury in May forced Maddison to sit out the final part of last season.
