Heart of Midlothian FC
Scotland goalkeeper Craig Gordon has had a Christmas to forget. The Heart of Midlothian FC captain suffered a double broken leg in a collision with an opponent during Saturday’s 2-2 draw at Dundee United, his club said on Monday. The 39-year-old will be “out of action for the rest of the season,” it said on Twitter. He has already had an operation.
“It’s obviously a huge blow to lose a player as influential as Craig for the rest of the season. But to be honest, all we’re thinking about at the moment is his welfare,” said coach Robbie Neilson. Gordon, whose contract expires in 2024, turns 40 on New Year’s Eve.
Hearts can confirm that Craig Gordon has suffered a double leg break and will miss the rest of the season.
The skipper has had an operation and will be released from hospital in due course.
Get well soon, Craig
