Completely normal challenge, very unfortunate.

 

Gonna be hard for all the lads, they'll all be keen to get off and find out what's gone on.

 

All the best to Wes of course, we're a family here and he'll have everything he needs, big up to the lads!

Normal challenge? He scissored tackled him at ankle height. 

[Metal Lover]

WTF!

[Guest Kopfkino]

Hope it’s similar to Andre Gomes’ one, he was back after 3 months

[spacemunky]

Really sad to hear about the injury to Wes 

[NasPb]

May he be cured asap 🙏

[An Away Move]

I’m afraid this might have cost us Champions League football. Fofana adds so very much. I can’t remember feeling more sickened after a match.

How long would an ankle/leg break see him out for? Whole season presumably?

He slid in with his left leg on one side of Fofana's leg and then swept his right leg through the back. He knew exactly what he was doing.

Depends but potentially yeah. Wait and see. He'll be off for some big painkillers and some scans. Oh and a massive boot.

That was a 'this guys destroying me so I'm gonna mess him up ' tackle

Has someone said on here look at gomes that looked far worse than this one and was back just after 4 months lets just hope this is the same 🤞

Gomes dislocated ankle.....Fofana has snapped his leg....more likely to be out until next year now

He took 'let him know you're there' way too far.

Alex Witsel? 

No he broke Marcin Wasilewski's, he's on about James Weslowski.

Didn't know normal challenges were flying in at shin height causing a potential leg break 

Apparently it's a pretty standard tackle for a friendly game

[Vardinio'sCat]

Devastated, let's hope it is a simple break.

Looks worse to be honest. 

 

Fofana's knee looks to have twisted badly before the ankle got trapped underneath the Villarreal player.

[Le Renard]

There was malice and intent by that Villareal player, It was a revenge tackle!

Gomes dislocated ankle....Wesley has snapped his leg

[Jakemoore]

I’ve never been so angry after a game in my life. How that cheating villareal scumbag thinks it’s okay to scissor tackle a 20 young kid in a friendly game is beyond me. We do need to try and seek some compensation if we can. I know it’s been done before but how and if we can do it I don’t know. Poor Wesley. Let’s just hope he’s a quick healer.

Gomes broke his leg also, it’s a similar injury…..
