Moses Odubajo Out For Six Months

 

Hull full-back Moses Odubajo has been ruled out for six months with a fractured kneecap, the club have confirmed. The 23years old was sidelined for a similar length of time after suffering a knee ligament injury in a pre-season friendly against Grimsby in the summer and said he was hoping to be ready for his Premier League debut for Hull in November.

However, the club have released a statement confirming that Odubajo faces a further spell out after picking up the injury in training.

A club statement said “The Tigers can confirm they were dealt a disappointing injury blow yesterday when Moses Odubajo was ruled out for an estimated six months with a fractured patella, the full-back, who had been making excellent strides on his comeback following dislocating his patella in the summer, picked the injury up in a non-contact incident whilst in training. Moses was assessed by surgeons in London yesterday who stated the player would be required to undergo more surgery to stabilise the fracture and this will be undertaken early next week. Positively, the 23-year-old's knee ligaments remain intact, including the MPFL reconstruction he had in the summer. he club, staff and players wish Moses a full and speedy recovery from this latest setback.”
