Croatian Luka Modric will be sidelined for two
weeks with a groin injury, his club Tottenham Hotspur said.
"An MRI scan has revealed that Luka Modric has suffered a
partially torn groin muscle," a club statement said.
The international midfielder was substituted at halftime of
the 2-1 defeat by Fulham in the Premier League on Saturday.
Tottenham have also parted company with
first-team goalkeeping coach Hans Leitert, the Premier League
club announced on their website.
The Austrian, author of a book entitled The Art of
Goalkeeping or The Seven Principles Of The Masters, joined the
club in the close season.
Tottenham's goalkeeping position has come under scrutiny
because of the erratic performances of Brazilian Heurelho Gomes.
