Walcott To Miss The Rest Of The Season And The World Cup by ndidibabe(f): 8:10pm On Jan 06, 2014 |
Arsenal and England forward Theo Walcott will miss the remainder of the season and the World Cup in Brazil due to a knee injury. The Gunners confirmed on their official website that Walcott is likely to be out for at least six months as a result of the anterior cruciate ligament injury sustained in the 2-0 FA Cup third-round win over Tottenham at the weekend. Walcott was taken from the field on a stretcher - and was subsequently pelted with objects thrown from the away end - after appearing to jar his knee when making a tackle during the closing stages of the encounter although the injury has turned out to be more severe. Arsenal confirmed on their website: "Theo will have surgery in London in the near future and is expected to be out for at least six months, therefore missing the remainder of the season and the World Cup in Brazil in the summer. "Everyone at Arsenal wishes Theo a speedy recovery and we look forward to seeing him back on a football pitch as soon as possible." Source: www.teamtalk.com. This is a sad one for Arsenal. |
