Soccer:Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp has confirmed that midfielder Tom Huddlestone will undergo an ankle operation next week. The 24-year-old has made four appearances for Spurs this season, the most recent of which came as a second-half substitute in the 5-1 home defeat against Manchester City on August 28th.

Redknapp said: “He needs another operation. He’s already had one but there is still a problem with him. It’s a blow. He will be out for a while.”
