We can confirm that Victoria Pelova suffered a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament while playing for the Netherlands against Finland on Tuesday 4 June.
Victoria was substituted after her knee extended in the 12th minute of the Netherlands’ UEFA Women’s Championship qualifier in Tampere, Finland, and subsequently underwent testing to determine the extent of the injury.
She will undergo surgery in due course and will be sidelined for an extended period.
Everyone at the club will now be supporting Victoria through her recovery and return to action.
