The Ireland midfielder suffered the injury against West Brom last weekend.

EVERTON MIDFIELDER JAMES McCarthy has confirmed surgery on the double leg break he suffered in the Premier League on Saturday was a success.

McCarthy sustained the injury via a challenge with West Brom striker Salomon Rondon during Saturday’s 1-1 draw at Goodison Park.

But, after going under the knife, the Republic of Ireland international confirmed the surgery had gone well and he will now begin his recovery.

“Just a quick message to say that my operation went well, thanks to all the staff involved!” McCarthy posted on Instagram.

“And a big thanks to all my family, friends and Olivia. Also cheers for all the messages, I appreciate it.”
