Super Falcons defender, Plumptre undergoes successful surgery

According to the ZINGTIE, Super Falcons defender Ashleigh Plumptre had a successful surgery in Saudi Arabia.

Plumptre suffered the injury last month while playing for the Saudi team Al Ittihad.

She could not participate in Nigeria’s Olympic Games qualifying match against the South African Banyana Banyana due to an injury.

The former player for Leicester City used social media to share news about her operation and express gratitude to her supporters, the national team, and the club for their support.

“Thank you to everyone at @ittiladiesclub and to Dr Pieter D’Hooge at @Aspetar for supporting me through my first surgery.

“It’s been a long time coming trying to get answers but I’m so grateful to now be at this stage.

“To my @NGSuper_Falcons teammates and nigerian fans… thank you for your patience and understanding when I’ve not been able to be with you. I can honestly say I have fought as hard and for as long as I can with this pain. I can’t wait to be back healthy with you all.

“My club – @ittiladiesclub.

“I’m so grateful to be surrounded by some really great humans at this club. Thank you, all of you, for helping me through and supporting me every step of the way.

“Back soon.”
