This means he could still play for Spurs against Nottingham Forest on Sunday.The Italian will then miss the international break with Italy over the next few weeks, as rehabilitation has been scheduled with Tottenham’s medical team.Credit: @thefrederikkejensen / InstagramTottenham fixtures Antonin Kinsky could play during Guglielmo Vicario absenceWith Vicario out for around a month for Tottenham, Antonin Kinsky is expected to be the man Igor Tudor will turn to. The Czech international has featured just three times this season, with all appearances coming in cup competitions. His last outing, however, was one to forget, with Kinsky making two high-profile mistakes in the Champions League, which led to am embarassing 16th minute substitution.Tudor remained certain that Kinsky would still feature for Tottenham this season, and with Vicario out, that is more or less guaranteed.The fixtures Kinsky could be set to start in during Vicario’s absence are listed below:Sun, Apr 12 – Sunderland vs Tottenham (away)Sat, Apr 18 – Tottenham vs Brighton (home)Sat, Apr 25 – Wolves vs Tottenham (away)There is a chance that Vicario could return before the Wolves game.
