Tottenham 'target new defender in January' amid fears Micky van de Ven could be out for MONTHS with a hamstring injury after pulling up in defeat to Chelsea

Tottenham will reportedly target a new left-sided centre-back during the January transfer window, as they to discover how long Micky van de Ven will be out of action.

The defender who has been a revelation for Ange Postecoglou's side since joining in the summer, worryingly pulled up in agony during their first-half of their 4-1 defeat to Chelsea on Monday night.

As previously reported by Mail Sport, Van de Ven is set to undergo a scan on an injured hamstring, amid fears he will miss months of the season.
