Ankle injury rules Capoue out of Spurs and France matches


LONDON (Reuters) - France international Etienne Capoue, one of the seven senior players to join Tottenham Hotspur in the past few weeks, faces a month on the sidelines after injuring an ankle in his team's 1-0 Premier League defeat at Arsenal on Sunday.

The club said on their website (www.tottenhamhotspur.com) that a scan showed an ankle sprain, a far less serious injury than Spurs manager Andre Villas-Boas feared when he hinted after the game he might have broken his leg.
