# Tottenham Hotspur: Fans react to report suggesting Kane & Sissoko will miss six weeks

**Both Harry Kane and Moussa Sissoko are set to miss six weeks of action due to injury, that is according to [the Transfer Window Podcast](https://play.acast.com/s/thetransferwindow/1dbc92cd-99a4-4cb6-8574-9d1023c7b604).**

\[freshpress-poll id=”271328″\]

It was confirmed recently that Kane had suffered a hamstring tear during their 1-0 defeat against Southampton on New Year’s Day ([BBC Sport](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/50986271)) and although no definitive timeframe was put on his comeback it will be a while before he returns.

As for Sissoko, he played 90 minutes against Southampton but missed the FA Cup tie against Middlesbrough on Sunday ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/moussa-sissoko/leistungsdaten/spieler/46001)) and afterwards, Jose Mourinho confirmed that he was absent due to injury ([football.london](https://www.football.london/tottenham-hotspur-fc/fixtures-results/jose-mourinho-press-conference-kane-17514873)).

Both players have been regulars this season, with Kane starting 20 of their 21 Premier League outings so far ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/harry-kane/leistungsdaten/spieler/132098)) and Sissoko starting 19 league games ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/moussa-sissoko/leistungsdaten/spieler/46001)).

So if they are out for six weeks as is suggested by the Transfer Window Podcast, it would certainly be a major blow to the north London side.

After seeing the length of time the duo could be out for, plenty of Spurs fans are pessimistic about the remainder of their season with some suggesting it is now as good as over.
