Tottenham Hotspur defender Cameron Carter-Vickers is set for a spell on the sidelines after suffering an ankle injury.

The 22-year-old joined the Championship outfit on a season long loan deal last month having previously played in the Championship for Sheffield United, Ipswich Town, Swansea City, Stoke City and Luton Town.
