Arsenal Striker Danny Welbeck Undergoes Second Operation on Broken Ankle

Arsenal's Danny Welbeck has undergone a second operation on his right ankle after it was broken in Thursday's UEFA Europa League stalemate against Sporting CP, and it remains unclear if he'll play again this season.

ESPN FC's Mattias Karen reported Welbeck had received another operation after undergoing the first procedure on Friday. The club released a statement, which read:

"Both procedures went well, without complications. Danny will now recuperate and start his rehabilitation. It's too early to say how long this will take. Everyone at the club will now be providing Danny with the best possible treatment and support in order to make him fit again as soon as possible.
