The versatile attacker was forced off during the second half of the Potters’ 1-0 defeat to West Brom after a challenge by Baggies defender Craig Dawson and went under the knife today.
Walters tweeted afterwards that he had requested some cosmetic surgery to look more like club mate Robert Huth:
Operation 2day. Asked if the surgeon can do a chin implant with a welly concurrently to be more like u @robert_huth ...Just for Mrs Walters
The Ireland squad meets up this Sunday for the FAI Awards before a week-long training camp ahead of the Euro 2016 qualifier at home to Poland on 29 March.
And Walters, who is nominated alongside John O’Shea and Aiden McGeady for Senior International Player of the Year, is now a doubt for the crucial game but could yet be available with the help of a protective mask.
