Onur Kivrak recovering from knee surgery

Onur Kivrak has spoken about his recovery from knee surgery last month.

Kivrak suffered a knee injury against Legia Warsaw in the Europa League at the start of October.

Speaking to local reports Kivrak said, “It usually takes around five and a half months to recover from the operation however, I will wait until i feel fully fit.

“A month has passed since I underwent the operation. I am using these crutches as a precaution.

“The most important thing is to keep my spirits up while I go though this phase.

“My moral was low following the injury but spending time with my family has helped. Things will improve from now on.”

Kivrak is expected to miss the rest of this season.

Trabzonspor are expected to sign a goalkeeper on a loan deal in January.

The 26-year-old goalkeeper made 46 appearances for Trabzonspor last season.

Kivrak has been at Trabzonspor since moving to the Black Sea based side in 2008 from Karsiyaka.
