England striker suffers injury setback and could face more surgery

Rodriguez suffered a horrific knee injury just before the 2014 World Cup

SOUTHAMPTON striker Jay Rodriguez could require ankle surgery next week.

 

The England international made a long-awaited return from a ruptured anterior cruciate knee ligament suffered in April 2014 at the start of this season.

Saints boss Ronald Koeman said: "Jay is not good, it's now a long time and we have to make a really tough decision how we have to do the treatment.

"Maybe it will be a surgery next week. Still his feet is a problem, it gives a lot of pain. We did everything and now, the final call, maybe it will be surgery next week."
