Ashleigh Plumptre has announced the start of her rehabilitation programme after a successful surgery on her left foot, Prompt News reports.
The Nigeria international sustained the injury while in action for Al-Ittihad Ladies last week.
The injury is expected to sideline Plumptre for several months.
The 27-year-old revealed the start of the rehabilitation process on the social media.
“The most beautiful week back home for surgery,” she wrote on Instagram.
“Grateful to be supported and surrounded by my @ittihadladiesclub family during this chapter and looking forward to the opportunity for more personal and collective growth – the journey.”
This marks the second occasion the former Leicester City player has been ruled out due to injury since joining Al Ittihad.
Plumptre sustained a serious injury while in action for Al Ittihad in March 2024, shortly after an impressive start to her debut season where she scored eight goals in 12 games.
