Manchester United legend, Lou Macari, has expressed his
regret following Peter Odemwingie’s injury in the Potters win
over Manchester City at the Etihad on Saturday.
The 32-year-old suffered a knee ligament injury that could
keep him out of Stoke City’s campaign for the rest of the
season.
“Your heart has to go out to Peter Odemwingie,” Macari told
Stoke Sentinel.
“He had a great first few months at Stoke after arriving from
Cardiff in January, goes to the World Cup with Nigeria and
scores a goal, now this.
“The cruciate knee ligament injury is a funny one because a
player doesn’t always know how serious it is at the time.
“You do worry for players with long-term injuries and
whether they will come back as quite the player they were,”
he added.
A cruciate ligament injury normally requires orthopedic
surgery and rehabilitation which could take between six
months and a year to heal.
