Deportivista goalkeeper Francis Uzoho will be operated on Thursday 14 November at the HM Modelo hospital in A Coruña. The surgeon in charge of operating on his left knee will be the Club's orthopaedic surgeon Rafael Arriaza. Francis sustained this injury last October playing for Nigeria in a friendly against Brazil.

Francis, who is on loan to Cypriot AC Omonia this season, arrived in A Coruña a few days ago to receive surgery and begin his recovery process.
