Tottenham Hotspur defender Radu Dragusin will undergo surgery on an ACL injury, the club confirmed on Tuesday.
The Romania international has made 28 appearances for Spurs in all competitions since joining from Genoa last summer, although his season now looks to be cut short.
Dragusin suffered the ACL injury in Spurs' 3-0 win over Swedish side Elfsborg last week in their final Europa League group game.
It is the latest injury that Spurs have suffered this season, with Guglielmo Vicario (ankle), Cristian Romero (hamstring), Destiny Udogie (hamstring), Dominic Solanke (knee), Brennan Johnson (calf), James Maddison (calf) also out injured.
Tottenham are next in action on Thursday in the return leg of their Carabao Cup semifinal clash against Liverpool, where Spurs hold a 1-0 lead on aggregate.
Head coach Ange Postecoglou has repeatedly cut a frustrated figure amid the club's ever-increasing injury list.
Ater their 2-0 win over Brentford on Sunday, when asked about changes to his infamously attacking style of play, he said: "How do I say this without sort of repeating myself and not sounding like an excuse? It's very difficult for a group of players to play Thursday and Sunday and maintain energy and levels.
"What they're doing is giving maximum effort and maximum effort in a game like today means that you can't be sharp and really dynamic with and without the ball, it's just impossible.
"They're human beings and not robots. People want to dismiss it, they want to talk about excuses, but that's the reality, I know the reality.
"These guys are giving everything. We knew today wasn't going to be a game where we could go out there and dominate, because Brentford had a week to prepare for this.
"We had 50-something hours [after the Elfsborg game] with the same group of players. So I think, with that context, I think the performance was outstanding."
