Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky has been one of the biggest bright spots over the last several weeks, and even when Spurs have stumbled, the young Czech goalkeeper has not been the one to blame for the issues. He has proven to be an upgrade over Guglielmo Vicario in the starting lineup for Spurs, showing a lot more composure and quality on the ball while making far fewer mistakes and still producing just as many, if not more, top drawer saves as the Italian international.
Kinsky won't have to miss any time this season, as he is still going to play on Sunday against Everton after maintaining his grip on the starting job despite manager Roberto De Zerbi still referring to Vicario as his No. 1 (maybe to protect his outgoing compatriot's reputation).
Antonin Kinsky is dedicated to Spurs
However, after the season ends, Kinsky will be on the shelf. Per a report from Alasdair Gold of Football.London, Antonin Kinsky isn't, as others were reporting, injured specifically, but he will miss time with a medical procedure that needs to be done. Again, Kinsky will not have to miss the Matchday 38 clash against Everton, which is vital for Spurs to get a point in order to ensure Premier League safety.
While the injury news initially seemed like a negative for Kinsky and Tottenham Hotspur, it turns out things are actually looking quite good for Spurs. Because of this medical procedure, which isn't an injury that will cause Kinsky further issues down the road, the young goalkeeper will not be at the 2026 World Cup for the Czech national team, which is by his own admission because Kinsky reportedly wants to get to work to help Spurs out and be up and running for the start of the 2026/27 league season (whether that is the EFL Championship or the Premier League).
Now, that is amazing news and dedication from Kinsky to Tottenham , and it is rare to see a player wanting a procedure done so they can pass up on the World Cup in order to focus on winning the starting job and helping their flailing club team. Tottenham are very, very lucky to have a character like Kinsky, who is a great young keeper in his own right and every bit the No. 1 over Guglielmo Vicario right now that he deserves to be. Spurs fans will hope for a point on Sunday, a great performance from Kinsky, and a swift and full recovery.
