Ivan Perisic is grateful for the overwhelming support from fans after his Anterior Cruciate Ligament injury. The injury was confirmed on Wednesday, resulting from a non-contact incident during training earlier this week.
The winger will now have surgery and begin rehabilitation with the club's medical team. Unfortunately, this means he'll likely miss the rest of the campaing.
Fans have poured in their messages of support for the Croatian international. On his official Instagram page, Ivan expressed his gratitude to the fans for their support. He also shared a quote from NBA legend Michael Jordan as his inspiration for the challenging rehabilitation period ahead.
"Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out to climb it, go through it or work around it. (M. Jordan) Thanks for all of your support. It means the world to me. See you soon."
Perisic had a strong start to the season for Tottenham, playing a crucial role in the comeback win over Sheffield United. He came off the bench to assist Richarlison's goal and played a key part in Dejan Kulusevski's winner. This match was also his 50th appearance in the club's colours.
