The Club would like to share with you an update on Connor’s injury, which will prevent him from taking any further part this season.
Connor had been suffering from pain in his shoulder for several months after a fall in training and following physio treatment was referred for MRI scans to investigate, it was during these scans that a suspected tumour was located within his upper arm. Following subsequent biopsies, this has been confirmed as low-grade chondroid sarcoma which is a rare type of cancer.
Although the treatment plan and timings are still being discussed with medical experts, chondroid sarcoma can only be treated through surgery, with a good success rate. The Club are working with Connor to ensure he gets all the support he needs during this difficult period through to his recovery.
In the meantime, Connor continues to be around his team mates at Carrington, staying fit and strong, and supporting the club in all its games and activities. We know County fans will be saddened by this news and understandably may have questions or concerns. At this time, all future updates on Connor’s progress will be provided only via official Club channels.
While we request privacy for him and his family at this time, messages of support can be emailed to media@stockportcounty.com and will be passed on to Connor
