Crewe winger Lankester to miss remainder of season
Crewe Alexandra winger Jack Lankester will miss the remaining matches of the season after underdoing knee surgery. Lankester, 25, went off midway through the second half of the 2-0 defeat at Bradford City on 5 April. He has scored seven times this season for Lee Bell's side, who are 11th in the League Two table and still in with a chance of a play-off place. "I feel for Jack. He had the shot at Bradford that hit the post and he twisted his knee," manager Bell told the club website. , external"He's had a meniscus tear operated on, which these days are pretty routine. It's gone really well, so we're looking to get him back for pre-season. "He's a terrific player who makes such a difference to us."
