Nolan was substituted after 35 minutes of the clash following a tackle by Spurs' Mousa Dembele.

It was initially reported that the 30-year-old could be out for as long as eight weeks, but the Hammers have denied this.

Assistant manager Neil McDonald revealed that Nolan's situation is complicated by previous injuries.

"His toe is very, very sore. He's had problems in the past with it, all season really," said McDonald.

And he got a real good kick on it. As I said, he has had problems with his foot all season, and he has been playing through the pain barrier."
