The goalkeeper went down hurt during an open training sessionRex

Whiteman, 24, was taking part in a goalie training drill at the Singapore National Stadium in a session open to the public when he sustained the injury.

Spurs medical staff raced onto the pitch to attend to him before he was carted away.

Whiteman showed signs of discomfort as he put his hands to his head.

The keeper’s right leg was placed in a brace which suggests his injury could be a serious one.

Whiteman was due to play some part in Wednesday’s friendly against local side Lion City Sailors.

New boss Ange Postecologou is understood to have been impressed with the former Under-19 England international during this Asia-Pacific tour.

It is a blow for Whiteman and Spurs, who have experienced a dreadful pre-season tour of Asia.

Whiteman’s injury comes just days after their friendly against Leicester was called off due to a waterlogged pitch.

The club also had problems with their stream of the defeat to West Ham, which had fans requesting their money back.

While Postecoglou has experienced problems off the pitch, admitting he has not been able to relax over the Harry Kane saga.

The Aussie shot down a German reporter who attempted to wind him up by holding up a Bayern Munich shirt emblazoned with ‘Harry Kane 9’ during a press conference.

Kane has been linked with a move to Bayern, who have reportedly already had two bids knocked back Tottenham.
