Footballer is expected to be out for at least a yearAntonio ‘conscious and communicating’ after accident
Michail Antonio is expected to be out for at least a year after the West Ham striker underwent an operation on a broken leg sustained in a horrific car accident on Saturday afternoon.
Antonio, who was airlifted to hospital after crashing his Ferrari in Epping, faces a long recovery after having surgery yesterday. It remains unclear if the 34-year-old’s injuries will force him to retire from football. But it is almost certain that Antonio will not play again this season and there are fears that the best-case scenario is at least a year of rehabilitation.
