Tottenham midfielder James Madison misses the rest of the season with a knee injury.
Madison was injured last Thursday when he won Bodeau/Grimt in the first league semi-finals of the Europa League, scoring Tottenham’s second goal in a 3-1 victory.
It was a week-ending season injury for the Spurs, and suffered an ankle injury that picked up midfielder Lucasberg Ball in training.

The duo’s injuries have been a major blow to Spurs boss Angi Postkoglu ahead of their second leg in Norway on Thursday, potentially in the Europa League final later this month.
Speaking with Bodeau/Grimt on the eve of the Tottenham game, Post-Coggle confirmed that Madison will not play again this season.
“The crazy guys have fine-tuned their knees with their first legs. He’s out. He’s missing the rest of the season,” Postcoglo said.
“He was a huge catalyst for us, so it’s more disappointing than anything for him.
“He misses it, but it was a constant part of our season. [just need to] Overcome that. ”
Madison said he was very respectful to manager Ange Postecoglou and admitted that he didn’t perform well in the league.
Post-Coglu made it first clear that Madison’s injuries appeared to be more serious than initial thought after a 1-1 draw at West Ham on Sunday.
The Australian said at a post-game press conference: [on Monday].
“I’m safe to say it doesn’t look promising, but I’ll just wait and see.”
Solanke is suitable for Bodo/Glimt second leg

However, after Sunday’s Premier League draw at West Ham, there was more encouraging news from striker Dominique Solanke’s post-coglu.
England International limped in their first leg home victory over Bodeau/Grimt last week and was removed from the team for a 1-1 draw at London Stadium.
However, Postecoglou is expected to be injured at 27 and will be featured in Norway this week’s second leg.
The Australian said at a post-game press conference:
“We ruled out him today, but the medical team is sure he should be fine on Thursday.”
As the Spurs pass the Norwegian champions on Thursday, the all-English final against Manchester United in Bilbao on May 21st awaits them.
It gives the Post-Coglow side an opportunity to end the 17-year trophy drought and compete in the Champions League next season.
