KILLYBEGS NATIVE SEAMUS COLEMAN has the backing of some greats of football as he begins his road to recovery.
The 28-year-old Everton defender underwent surgery on a double break of his left leg on Saturday morning at St Vincent’s Hospital in Dublin and faces at least six months on the sidelines and will undergo intensive physiotherapy to aid his recovery to full fitness. A rash challenge from Wales’ Neil Taylor saw the left-back receive a straight red card in the World Cup qualifier that finished scoreless at the Aviva Stadium.
Wishing @Everton Seamus Coleman a speedy And full recovery, Stay positive pal and you will be back to your best again #Skipper #positive ?
