England and Harlequins star David Strettle looks set to undergo surgery after picking up a foot injury during Quins 30-23 win over Worcester on October 2nd.
According to Director of Rugby Dean Richards the wing is set to see a surgeon on Monday morning, after which they will hopefully have a better idea about his recovery.
With foot injuries having hampered the majority of his season last year, ruling him out of the World Cup and almost all of the 6 Nations campaign, the setback is obviously very disappointing for Strettle but Richards is keen to hear what the doctor says before concerning himself with anything else.
"In terms of knowing exactly what the score is, we will wait and see what the surgeon says.
"There is a possibility he might have an operation tomorrow - I don't know at this stage."
