LONDON (Reuters) - Tottenham Hotspur forward Son Heung-min will be out of action for up to two weeks after picking up a muscle injury in Wednesday's semi-final League Cup defeat at Chelsea, manager Antonio Conte told reporters on Friday.

The injury to the 29-year-old South Korea international is a blow for the London side, who welcome third-tier Morecambe in the FA Cup third round on Sunday before games against Chelsea, Arsenal and Leicester City over the next fortnight.

"The day after, Son felt a bit of pain in his muscle, in his leg and he had a scan. Now we have to make the right evaluations from the doctors. He has an injury." "He's improving day-by-day, step-by-step. My expectation and the medical department's expectation is to come back very soon. Also , it will be very important for him to recover," said the Spurs manager.

“For sure, this could be a good opportunity to see him again. Eric Dier had a training session with us today. That’s more good news. He missed Chelsea because he was ill ... and he’s available for the game on Sunday,” Conte said.
