FC Tobol’s Eze undergoes successful arthroscopic surgery following shoulder injury

The 26-year-old defender has undergone an operation and he faces a race against time to return to full fitness

Stephen Eze has undergone arthroscopic surgery on his shoulder labrum which will take him several weeks to heal, the FC Tobol defender has confirmed.

The Nigeria international suffered the injury in March during the club’s pre-season campaign in March.

That procedure has now been carried out, although no timescale has been put on his recovery as the Kazakhstan Premier League resumes in July.
