Damn poor kid. Get well soon!
We have been brainwashed by the Premier League that it's the best in the world. Nonsense. It's the best brand
Roy Keane: ITV 02/25/14

He says that we are currently "brainwashed" into believing that the Premier League is the best competition in the world, and that we are now a long way off dominating the Champions League again.
Gary Neville: Mirror: 12/23/14

I think Spain’s by far the best league.

Recovery times differ depending on the severity of the injury: A minor, or grade 1, MCLtear can take from a few days to a week and a half to heal sufficiently for you to return to normal activities, including sports. A grade 2 tear can take from two to four weeks to heal.

Onyekuru To Undergo Knee Surgery, Faces Long Lay-Off

Peter Oriaku
16 hours ago
By Nurudeen Obalola:
Nigeria forward Henry Onyekuru will undergo surgery on his knee after being strecthered off in a Belgian league match on Friday, Completesportsnigeria.com reports.
Onyekuru got injured late into Anderlecht’s 1-0 win over his former club Eupen in a Belgian First Division A fixture on Friday night.

Completesportsnigeria.com reported on Saturday morning that the 20-year-old Super Eagles forward was to undergo a scan to determine the extent of the injury and the next course of action.

The scan has now been done and Anderlecht have confirmed that the player will have to go under the knife.

“The medical staff of RSCA reports after extensive medical research that Henry Onyekuru has torn his medial bond,” Anderlecht stayed on their official website.
“Onyekuru will soon be operated on. The medical staff is in close contact with his parent club Everton to determine where the Nigerian will go. Henry Onyekuru got injured against KAS Eupen on Friday.”


Onyekuru, 20, could be out for a long stretch, with his chances of featuring for the Super Eagles at the 2018 World Cup affected. He has played two senior official games for Nigeria.

Onyekuru joined Everton from Eupen at the beginning of the season but was immediately loaned out to Anderlecht where he has overcome a slow start to hit good form.

The youngster has scored nine goals in 19 league appearances and 10 goals in 28 games in all competitions despite playing mostly as a wide forward.

Friday night’s win kept Anderlecht in third place in the Belgian top flight table with 37 points from 20 matches, 13 points adrift of leaders Club Brugge. Chaleroi are second with 39 points.

Things are not as bad as I originally feared. It is only a medial ligament sprain or MCL injury:

A mild MCL injury or grade one sprain should take 3 to 6 weeks to make a full recover.
A more severe grade 2 or grade 3 injury may take 8 to 12 weeks.

A medial ligament sprain or MCL injury is a tear of the ligament on the inside of the knee, usually a result of twisting or direct impact. Medial ligament injuries are common in contact sports such as football and rugby, as well as martial arts. They can also occur in daily life through falls and twists of the knee joint.

Hopefully, he will be back in time for the Wortd Cup.

I was talking about Naija and his World Cup chances. Not done enough to be given the luxury of playing himself back to fitness unlike some of our regulars.

Dang. Feel sorry for the guy. Cruciate injuries are deadly and potentially career ending. Hope he recovers and gets back to full fitness.

Hopefully it’s the less serious MCL which gives a fair chance of returning this season. Get well soon.
