Fredericks out for six weeks after surgery

Ryan Fredericks has had successful surgery on his shoulder injury today and is expected to return to action in around six weeks time.

The 27-year-old damaged ligaments in his right shoulder during the recent Premier League clash at Manchester City and, following specialist consultation, underwent an operation on Wednesday afternoon.

Claret and Hugh broke the devasting news six days ago revealing that the defender was likely to need surgery.

Head of Medical Richard Collinge told WHUFC.com: “Ryan’s surgery went exactly as planned and he will begin his rehabilitation and recovery immediately, with the plan being for him to be available again in early to mid-April.”

A mid-April return would see the right missing the next six games but could make him available for the remaining five games of the Premier League season.

West Ham plays Burnley at the London Stadium on  18th April followed by Norwich City away, Watford at home, Manchester United at Old Trafford followed by the final games of the season against Aston Villa at home.

Jeremy Ngakia and Pablo Zabaleta will deputise for the right-back position and Ngakia carries on the form he has shown in two Liverpool games Fredericks could have a fight on his hands to get his starting position back.
