Docs get to bottom of Sak’s injury issues

Exclusive

Diafra Sakho has had a long standing back problem sorted out whist undergoing surgery on his thigh injury.

The club’s major striker is close to a return to action after an operation following the injury he sustained against West Brom at the end of November.

He is well ahead of the expected three month recovery deadline and could be back within a fortnight but there’s even better news on a player who has had more than his share of injury issues.

Last season his back problem  saw him miss 12 League games and so far this year he has appeared on 14 occasions but now doctors re confident they have got to the  bottom of his ongoing problems.

According to a very well placed source, the two issues – back and thigh – were found to be inter-linked and the medical procedures involved in his operation six weeks ago should have solved BOTH issues.

ClaretandHugh was told esclusively: The medics have taken a good look at things and are very hopeful that the issues have been solved. He should come back as a ‘new’ man.”
