Now, the Seagulls star has taken to social media to apologise, admitting that he regrets the tackle. Writing on Twitter, he said:

“If I could turn back time I wouldn't have made that bad tackle. (Shrug emoji).”After the full-time whistle, the 21-year-old was spotted wearing a protective boot as fans feared the worst.
