Edouard Mendy has undergone an operation on a fractured finger after injuring it during training, the club have revealed.
The 30-year-old has been absent from the matchday squad since the Premier League's return with Marcus Bettinelli taking his place on the bench instead. Mendy was replaced as first-choice keeper by Kepa Arrizabalaga once Graham Potter was appointed and has only played five times since then, all coming when Kepa was injured himself.
The statement says he will be working with the club's medical department during the rehabilitation phase. The Senegal keeper is one of 10 first-team injuries for Graham Potter to deal with at the moment.
