Murray says Fernandez texted him after head clash

Brighton & Hove Albion striker Glenn Murray revealed he spoke to Newcastle United defender Federico Fernandez after his head clash from the previous weekend, reports Chronicle Live.

Murray came off after 16 minutes against Newcastle on October 20 due to his head injury but returned in time to play a full 90 minutes a week later against Wolverhampton Wanderers – he scored the winner in Saturday’s meeting at the Amex.

The 35-year-old said on the injury: “I can’t remember anything of it (the incident) to be honest. I’ve watched it back in some depth and it’s a header I often go for and compete for.
