Black Cats confirm striker blow
Sunderland, 09:27, September 1, 2010 , | No Comments
Steve Bruce claims it is a 'tragedy' that Sunderland striker Fraizer Campbell has been ruled out for six months with a knee injury.
The Black Cats boss revealed that the 22-year-old hitman faces a minimum of six months on the sidelines after he suffered cruciate knee ligament damage in Sunday's 1-0 win against Manchester City. And, while Bruce is tipping Campbell to come back strongly from his adversity, he feels it is a real shame given that the former Manchester United youngster was starting to find his best form.
"He (Campbell) has ruptured his cruciate knee ligaments so he's going to be out for at least six months," Bruce said.
"It's a tragedy. But Fraizer will be back. He's a larger-than-life character. He was just starting to show what he was about. But make no mistake he'll be back and he'll be firing again."
