Canadian Mark-Anthony Kaye fractures ankle in L.A. derby
LOS ANGELES — Canadian midfielder Mark-Anthony Kaye fractured his ankle in Los Angeles FC’s derby match with the L.A. Galaxy on Thursday.
"I’ll start with the worst news of the night," LAFC coach Bob Bradley told the post-game news conference. "It’s Mark-Anthony Kaye, fractured inside part of ankle. Surgery (needed). That part has had me in a bad mood since I got the report at halftime."
There was no immediate timeline on Kaye’s return. An LAFC spokesman said Kaye saw a doctor Friday to determine the extent of the injury before coming up with a treatment plan.
The 23-year-old from Toronto, who had been having a breakthrough season, left the field 20 minutes into the 2-2- tie.
Kaye has started 20 of LAFC’s 21 matches this season with two goals and five assists. The former York University player spent time with Toronto FC II in its inaugural USL season in 2015 before playing the next two seasons with Louisville City FC of the USL.
He signed with expansion LAFC in February.
