Tottenham defender Ben Davies has undergone a second operation on his fractured left ankle. The Wales captain sustained the injury during Tottenham's 2-1 Premier League defeat to West Ham United on Saturday, January 17. Davies was stretchered off the pitch after 19 minutes, receiving oxygen treatment for the severe injury.
Tottenham Hotspur confirmed on January 19 that Davies would require surgery for the fracture. Reports indicate this latest procedure, a second surgery, now means the defender is expected to miss the remainder of the current season.
His recovery timeline places his availability for Wales' World Cup qualifying play-off semi-final in March in significant doubt. Should Wales progress and qualify for the World Cup, Davies' participation in the summer tournament remains highly uncertain.
