Bentancur said on his social networking service (SNS) on the 9th, `Everything is fine! Thank you for the message."Congratulations on your victory" he said. At the same time, Bentancur also posted a photo of himself recovering consciousness in the hospital. As a result, fans who were concerned about his major injury were less worried.
Bentancourt was injured in the first leg of the 2024-2025 English Football League (EFL) semi-final against Liverpool at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on the same day. He fainted when he fell to the ground from the head while heading the ball in a corner kick in the first half. Treatment continued for about 9 minutes, and it was an urgent situation where an oxygen respirator was also put in.
Bentancourt left the stadium on a stretcher. Brennan Johnson was put on the field in place of Bentancourt.
Tottenham won the match 1-0 thanks to Lucas Beribal's score. Game 2 is scheduled to be played on February 7 at Anfield, Liverpool's home stadium.
After the game, Tottenham captain Son Heung-min posted a wish for Bentancur's recovery on social media. Son Heung-min said "All our hearts and strength will be with him"
Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou is also believed to have found consciousness about Bentancourt. I was conscious when I arrived in the locker room"It's a concern, I heard he'll be all right."

At a TV show in Uruguay in June last year, `It could be Son Heung-min's cousin's uniform. Because they all look the same, he made a mocking remark. It was a racist remark that Asians all looked the same.
As the situation grew later, Bentancourt apologized to Son Heung-min, and Son Heung-min also accepted the apology.
In this regard, the English Football Association (FA) imposed a seven-game suspension on Bentancourt. The fine was 100,000 pounds (about 180 million won). As Bentancourt's participation was canceled for a long time, Tottenham had to struggle to appoint players. Injuries continued, and naturally, the team's performance plummeted.
Tottenham is 12th in the league with seven wins, three draws and 10 losses in 20 games in the English Premier League (EPL) this season, with 24 points.
