Tottenham boss Mourinho insists Winks injury not serious

Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho insists Harry Winks' latest injury is not long-term.

Winks picked up an ankle injury in the 2-1 win over Norwich.

The England midfielder limped off in the second half at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium after a challenge by Todd Cantwell, who had already survived a VAR check for violent conduct.

Mourinho had not dared to ask his medical staff how bad it was before he came into his post-match press conference.

But as he left the stadium he offered a positive update, saying: "It is not a crazy one - hopefully weeks and not months."
