On Monday, Sweden’s football association confirmed Tottenham Hotspur’s Lucas Bergvall has picked up a “minor injury”. He returned to London yesterday and missed the national team’s 3-0 win over Estonia.
There was no mention of the nature of the setback or when the 18-year-old picked up an injury.
Fotboll Direkt provides more on the Tottenham player’s injury situation. They indicate his withdrawal was mainly a precautionary measure.
It’s claimed the midfielder’s injury isn’t serious, but the ‘trend has been negative for a number of weeks’. This suggests the youngster has been struggling with a fitness concern recently.
The report states Bergvall had a ‘sore groin’ after Tottenham’s Europa League win over Ferencvárosi TC on October 3rd. That didn’t stop him from being part of the national team squad for October’s international break.
They add he felt ‘something happened in the back of his calf’ during a training session with Sweden.
Even though the Sweden international’s injury isn’t a major concern, Fotboll Direkt say he will undergo a ‘medical examination’ in London, after returning to Tottenham. This should provide more clarity about his injury.
Bergvall has made eight appearances in all competitions for Tottenham this season.

Former Newcastle United director Amanda Staveley is attempting to buy into Tottenham Hotspur and is already planning big changes.
Staveley is in negotiations to buy a minority stake in Tottenham although a deal being struck any time soon appears to be way off for now.
Daniel Levy has revealed that he is open to investment in Spurs as the North London club look to improve the team on the pitch and other exciting projects.
Tottenham fans will be hoping that Staveley is the person to finally shed some real focus on improving the team on the pitch and attempt to end their 16-year wait for silverware.
Current Newcastle manager Eddie Howe would become a key contender for the Tottenham job should Staveley take part ownership of the club, according to The Sun.
The 51-year-old remains a big fan of the manager who she appointed whilst as a director at the Tyneside club.
Howe also has interest from the FA to succeed Gareth Southgate as the England manager, however, they are unwilling to pay the compensation required and the man himself is keen to remain club football.

Tottenham send scouts to watch Bundesliga youngster who Jude Bellingham highly rates
Tottenham Hotspur have started making their plans for the coming transfer windows as they look to reinforce Ange Postecoglou’s squad.
Spurs have recently shifted their focus back towards signing players with big potential for the future having brought in five teenagers over the summer.
Lucas Bergvall, Archie Gray, Yang Min-hyeok and Wilson Odobert were the quartet of talented teenagers who the club signed.
Now, they are looking for more talented youngsters around Europe to sign and have found a Bunsldeiga winger who has come to their attention.
Tottenham sends scouts to watch Borussia Dortmund star
Tottenham, Chelsea and Liverpool have all sent scouts to watch Borussia Dortmund winger Jamie Bynoe-Gittens, according to BILD.
The Englishman has been making quite a name for himself in Germany having produced some very impressive performances with Dortmund.
Most notably, the 20-year-old won the Player of the Match award in the Champions League against Club Brugge as he netted a brace away in Belgium.
The winger now has four goals and two assists to his name this season in all competitions and has caught the eye of many major English clubs.
However, the trio of English giants face a tough battle to prise him away from the Westfalenstadion as Dortmund will only sell him for silly money, presumably in a similar region to Jude Bellingham and Jadon Sancho.
Speaking of Bellingham, the Real Madrid star has tipped his fellow countryman and former teammate to win the prestigious Golden Boy award.
Do Tottenham already have Heung-min Son’s successor?
Tottenham are certainly not short of talent, young wingers as they already have several prospects on their books.
Mikey Moore is arguably the most talented left-winger they own with Ange Postecoglou having high hopes for the teenager. Moore became the youngest player to make his full debut for Tottenham when he appeared for the club aged just 17 years, one month and 23 days old.
Wilson Odobert who joined over the summer for £25 million is another player very highly rated by the club and Yang Min-hyeok, who is due to join Spurs in January, is another very talented teenage winger.
The North London club already have three very promising young talents there and need to be cautious about blocking their developments by bringing in another wide forward.
