Ross McCormack has surgery to remove FIVE cysts from his jaw and writes off season at Nottingham Forest
By Simon Jones


Ross McCormack has written off his troubled season following an Achilles injury and surgery to remove FIVE cysts from his jaw.

The Aston Villa striker is on loan at Nottingham Forest though he has not been at training for three weeks now and accepts his season is over.

The 30-year-old, a £12.5million signing from Fulham last summer, needs an injection in his injured Achilles over the coming days and endured a three hour operation in Glasgow a fortnight ago to remove the cysts which were caused by an infection in his mouth.

The 30-year-old had a three-hour operation in Glasgow two weeks ago



Owing to the facial swelling, doctors advised McCormack not to train for ten to 14 days. Forest have been supportive of the Scotland international but, with his Achilles also still needing rest, McCormack believes he has played his last game of the campaign.

'It's been a freakish couple of weeks in what has been an abnormal season for me,' McCormack told Sportsmail. 'Forest have been good with me. I wanted to help them but the doctors have advised that I avoid contact in training and rest up.

'I'm not used to seasons where I don't play a lot of games and get my goals. I desperately want to get back to that. Obviously, the move to Villa didn't start as planned but hopefully I can get myself sorted and come back in the summer nice and fresh.'


It has proved a difficult campaign for the Scot, who scored 23 goals for Fulham last season, following his fallout with Villa manager Steve Bruce in January.

He failed to report for training after insisting the electric gates at his home were stuck, prompting Bruce to exile him from the first team squad.

Villa will look to sell in the summer though McCormack had hoped to finish the season with a flourish at Forest and help them avoid relegation to League One.

Who knows? It all seems odd and it looks like it might have been Mrs McCormack's doing! LOL :lol:

However, if this is genuine, then I wish Ross a speedy and full recovery with regard to his personal health :ayatollah:
