Antonio Conte is hopeful that Matt Doherty's knee injury won't sideline him for long as Tottenham push hard for Champions League qualification.
Ireland boss Stephen Kenny will be monitoring the situation closely as he plans on Doherty being a key figure in June, when the Nations League is due to start although the four fixtures pencilled in against Ukraine, Scotland and Armenia are expected to change.
Doherty, 30, suffered the injury in a challenge with Aston Villa's Matty Cash during Spurs' 4-0 victory on Saturday. The Dubliner was replaced by Sergio Reguilon in the 21st minute.
