Crystal Palace dealt second serious injury blow in the space of a week as young full back Nathan Ferguson 'tears his achilles in training' - just days after star man Ebere Eze had suffered exactly the same fate

Crystal Palace have been dealt another horrific injury blow after promising young full back Nathan Ferguson tore his achilles in training - just days after Ebere Eze had suffered a similar fate.

Ferguson has not played a game for Palace since his arrival in July 2020, having arrived with a knee injury from West Brom and since suffered a series of niggling injuries that have kept him away from the pitch.

The 20-year-old right back was approaching full fitness again over the last few weeks, with The Athletic reporting that Roy Hodgson was considering including him in the squad to face Liverpool on Sunday.
