Ivan Perisic confirmed on social media that his ACL surgery was successful.
Last Wednesday, it was revealed that Perisic had sustained a ‘complex ACL damage’ in his right knee, which would necessitate surgery.
According to numerous reports, the veteran wide-man will be out for at least six months (Fabrizio Romano), which implies he may not play until late March or early April.
Tottenham will be disappointed by the news, as Perisic, while not starting a Premier League game this season, has been a valuable impact substitute for Ange Postecoglou.
The Spurs manager said last week that the development was incredibly disappointing, but he was impressed with the Croat’s professionalism in their little time together (Football.London).

Given Perisic’s mindset and professionalism, there is no question that he will work tirelessly to return to action as soon as possible. However, his chances of kicking a ball for Tottenham again appear to be poor at the moment.
