Nathan Dyer: Swansea City winger has surgery on Achilles injury

Swansea City winger Nathan Dyer has had surgery on his ruptured Achilles after being ruled out for the rest of this season with the injury.

The 29-year-old came off after just seven minutes of the 2-0 win over Leicester City on Sunday.

Dyer, who won a Premier League winners medal while on loan with the Foxes last season, will now be assessed.

"Nathan is doing okay," performance director Richard Buchanan said, as Dyer works towards a first-team comeback.

Buchanan continued: "When the injury happened, he said he felt like somebody had caught him on the back of his foot.
