Injured Bale to Miss Few Weeks For Tottenham

Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho confirmed on Tuesday that Gareth Bale will miss  "a few weeks" with a calf strain. 

The 31-year-old picked up the injury during Spurs' 3-1 Carabao Cup quarter-final win over Stoke before Christmas.

Bale has made 11 caps, netting three goals, since returning to Spurs on loan from Real Madrid in September.

"I wouldn't say it's serious," added Mourinho, whose side play Fulham in the Premier League on Wednesday before taking on Leeds on Saturday, 2 January.

Spurs then face Brentford in the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup on 5 January, and travel to Marine in the third round of the FA Cup on 10 January.
