LONDON — Tottenham says wing-back Ivan Perisic has suffered an ACL injury to his right knee. The club says Perisic will undergo surgery to repair what it described as a "complex" injury sustained in non-contact training. It was not said how long the Croatia international would be out of action. The 34-year-old Perisic has been involved in every game for the London club this season but his only start came in the League Cup against Fulham. His absence will be a blow to Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou. The coach has made an impressive start since taking over in the off-season. Second-place Spurs is undefeated in the league.
