Luton Town

Josh Neufville has thanked Yeovil Town for helping him to regain his belief in his own ability as his loan spell at the club ended.

The 20-year-old underwent surgery on an ankle injury suffering last weekend’s 4-3 defeat at Altrincham and took to Twitter to thank people who had sent their best wishes.

This week, the youngster was offered a new contract with his parent club, Championship side Luton Town, and seems destined to have a bright future.

Yeovil Town’s loan winger Josh Neufville has surgery on a broken ankle today, sending a snap from his hospital bed to his instagram account.

Manager Darren Sarll gave an update on the Luton Town man’s injury,

“Josh is in surgery today (Thursday), he has a tough road back. It is probably the worst injury a footballer can get in terms of time off.”

Sarll confirmed that he has suggested that Yeovil Town might be a place where Josh can continue his rehab and regain match fitness.

“We have told him if it’s possible that his first game back when he’s fit can be at Yeovil, we will welcome him with open arms… the impact he had from Day One was incredible.”

“I like those loan players who take the football club to their heart. Remeao Hutton had that, Michael Kelly has that.
When you loan a player you are basically renting them, but Josh has never been like that and I would love him to play for Yeovil again. We have helped his career enormously and he has helped us to come out of a bad start and get a few wins.”

Josh’s Mum, who has taken time to thank Yeovil fans for their support this past week, confirmed that Josh’s surgery had been a complete success.

We of course, wish Josh all the best in his recovery.
