However, he lasted just 20 minutes, limping off the field, replaced by Dane Scarlett in injury time of the 1-0 loss. The injury came after a collision with AZ goalkeeper Rome-Jayden Owusu-Oduro, with Solanke jumping for a header and coming off badly from the impact with the stopper.
A former Tottenham player was outraged at the treatment of Dominic Solanke as the England striker went off re-injured against AZ Alkmaar.
Solanke was introduced late in the game as Ange Postecoglou’s side searched for an equaliser, but his comeback was short-lived. In stoppage time, he collided mid-air with Rome-Jayden Owusu-Oduro while challenging for a cross, landing heavily on his left side.
