Lucy Parker has underwent successful surgery on an ankle problem which reoccurred during the winter break.
Prior to our Adobe Women's FA Cup defeat to Everton earlier this month, Manager Carla Ward stated the defender had been suffering with the same issue for the last couple of years, and it was determined that the best course of action was to undergo surgery.
The surgery was successful and Lucy is now expected to be out until the latter stages of the season.
Lucy joined the club from West Ham United in the summer and has made seven appearances thus far. She scored her first goal for the club during October's Barclays WSL defeat to Tottenham Hotspur.
Speedy recovery, Lucy!
