LONDON (AP) — Tottenham says Brazil midfielder Sandro will miss the rest of the Premier League season following surgery on his right knee.
The 23-year-old Sandro was forced off the field against Queens Park Rangers on Saturday and consultation with Tottenham's knee surgeon has revealed cruciate ligament damage, which will keep the player sidelined for the remainder of the season.
