Oldham Athletic star Hallam Hope is in hospital with serious injuries following an alleged assault at the hands of an unnamed Chesterfield player.
The 28-year-old was allegedly attacked following his side's 2-0 defeat by Chesterfield in the National League, in which he played the full 90 minutes at Boundary Park.
Oldham have notified the police about the incident and provided CCTV footage. The club suspects the midfielder will be out for some time while he recovers from his injuries.
