Arsenal's Sagna to undergo surgery on broken ankle

Bacary Sagna will have surgery on a broken fibula for the second time this season.

The Arsenal right-back sustained the injury in Saturday's 3-3 draw with Norwich City after originally suffering a break against Tottenham earlier in the campaign.

The Frenchman will go for an operation tonight with Gunners boss Arsene Wenger expecting him to be sidelined for a few months.

"He will have surgery tonight," said Wenger.

"It is a straight broken fibula. We expect him to be out for a few months but let's see how surgery goes."
