Jackson, suffered a fracture of the tibia and fibula early Sunday morning while playing in a “Sunday Special” match. He was quickly rushed to the hospital.
A surgery was to be performed the next day after his injured left foot was cast in Plaster of Paris (POP).
Speaking to the club’s website in an interview, Team Physiotherapist, who was one of the first people to see Jackson Owusu shortly after the surgery, disclosed that, a plating and screwing surgery was performed on him.
“The tibia was compounded. For the fibula, it was a simple fracture. What he underwent is called plating and screwing. It’s to hold the two fragmented segments [broken bones]” the Physiotherapist said. A rehabilitation process, expected to be in three phases has now started
