England’s Agyemang out for season with ruptured ACL
The Lioness has released a statement confirming the news…
England striker Michelle Agyemang has announced that she has suffered a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament, ruling her out for the remainder of the season.
The 19-year-old sustained the injury during England’s 3-0 victory over Australia on Tuesday, collapsing off the ball before being taken off on a stretcher.
Agyemang, currently on loan at Brighton & Hove Albion from Arsenal, had only been on the field for 13 minutes after coming on as a second-half substitute.
“[I’m] disappointed that results show a torn ACL,” she shared on Instagram. “I am so grateful for all the kind words and support from everyone.
“Recovery starts now, I will be back stronger than before.”
