Fears over an injury to Tottenham Hotspur star James Maddison have been played down after he was seen leaving the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on crutches.
Maddison played his part in a hugely impressive Spurs display on home turf on Saturday evening as Manchester United were beaten 2-0.
The former Leicester City midfielder completed the full 90 minutes of the Premier League clash as he continues to make a quick impact at Tottenham.
However, Maddison was spotted leaving the stadium on crutches, something which instantly raised fears over a possibly serious injury having been picked up.
Maddison though told the journalists who spotted him that it was just a precaution, according to football.london.
It remains to be seen why Spurs’ medical staff gave Maddison crutches to use and what any problem might be.
Tottenham are next in action away at Bournemouth next weekend, a game they will want Maddison available for, before they then play Fulham at Craven Cottage in the EFL Cup.
Spurs’ first fixture after the transfer window has closed is a visit north to Turf Moor to take on Burnley.

Tottenham Hotspur favour a permanent exit for defender Japhet Tanganga amid newly promoted Premier League side Luton Town opening talks with the Lilywhites over a possible loan deal, according to The Athletic.
The Tottenham academy graduate has found it hard to manage minutes at senior level in spite of being handed his debut back in 2019.
He has added another 49 appearances to the first one and his club are now open to letting him go due to the fact that manager Ange Postecoglou is keen on new faces in defence.
While Italian giants Inter Milan have been credited with an interest, Tanganga has suitors in his own country England as well.
Premier League new boys Luton Town have made enquiries about the availability of the player, who they want to take on loan.
Though discussions are still at an early stage, Tottenham’s preference is for the player to leave on a permanent transfer.
The 24-year-old defender also has interest from Turkish giants Galatasaray. A former England Under-21 international, Tanganga has a contract with Tottenham that runs until the summer of 2025.
