Setback for Schumacher
14 Nov 2007 - 12:52:23
Crewe Alexandra midfielder Steven Schumacher has suffered a training ground injury and looks set to be sidelined for the next six weeks.
The 23-year-old former Everton trainee landed awkwardly on his ankle and a scan confirmed he had sustained ligament damage.
Schumacher had been sidelined since last month's victory against Luton Town with a hamstring problem before coming on as a substitute in the FA Cup first round win against Milton Keynes Dons.
Schumacher has made 14 appearances for Alex since his summer switch from Bradford City.
