Last updated : 18 November 2003 By Luke Thornhill

Calvo-Garcia suffered the injury in the LDV Vans Trophy win against Shrewsbury on October 14, and although he had been told that he had not broken a bone it has now been established that an operation is required to cure the problem.

The Basque midfielder said: "The injury couldn't have happened at a worse time.

"I will be out for 14-16 weeks and if all goes well I will be back for the last two months of the season.

"Although the ankle has improved I was told it was never going to recover fully wihtout surgery."
