Striker Izale McLeod is now on the Sparrows Lane treatment table. Charlton striker Izale McLeod has been ruled out for up to nine months after damaging knee ligaments while on loan at Colchester. The 23-year-old was making his second substitute appearance for the Us when he was stretchered off in Tuesday's 4-1 defeat at Plymouth.
He sustained a spontaneous dislocation to his knee, which in turn led to the rupture of his anterior ligament. He has also suffered significant damage to both of his collateral ligaments along with a torn meniscus. Sounds very nasty!
He will be in a brace for three weeks before undergoing reconstructive surgery, followed by intensive rehab to get him back to fitness. It represents further disappointment for the former MK Dons player who was never able to get a run in the first team at Charlton.
