IANS

London, Sep 25 (IANS) Arsenal forward Theo Walcott will miss England’s crucial FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Montenegro and Poland as he needs to undergo an abdominal surgery.

The 24-year-old didn’t play in Arsenal’s Premier League match against Stoke Sunday despite being initially named in the team, reports Xinhua.

“Theo will be out for a few weeks. He has developed some damage to his posterior abdominal wall. It’s not a hernia but it’s a little structural problem in his abdomen,” said Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger.
