Gardner came on as a substitute against Chelsea on Sunday
|
Tottenham defender Anthony Gardner will be sidelined for the next six weeks after sustaining a hairline fracture of the fibula at Chelsea on Sunday.
Gardner, 25, sustained the injury shortly after coming on as a substitute during the 3-3 draw in the FA Cup.
"We'll do a CT scan but it looks like he'll be out for around six weeks," said Spurs boss Martin Jol.
"Fortunately, we have a squad of versatile players who can cover our defensive positions."
