Reggae Girl Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw Undergoes Surgery for Broken Foot

Reggae Girl Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw, has undergone surgery for a broken foot sustained during a recent Women’s Super League match against West Ham United.

Despite the setback, Shaw’s determination and positive outlook shine through as she vows to return stronger.

Shaw, who scored twice in Manchester City’s 5-0 victory over West Ham, had to be substituted at half-time after suffering the injury just before the interval.

The confirmation of Shaw’s injury and subsequent surgery was announced by Manchester City, revealing that the Jamaican forward sustained the foot injury late in the first half at the Joie Stadium.

  

Due to the severity of the injury, Shaw will be sidelined for Manchester City Women’s final three matches of the Barclays Women’s Super League season as she embarks on her recovery journey.

However, despite her absence, Shaw remains a top contender for the league’s Golden Boot, having amassed an impressive tally of 21 goals in just 18 WSL appearances.

Notably, in March 2024, she achieved the milestone of becoming Manchester City Women’s record goal scorer.

Shaw expressed her gratitude for the overwhelming support and well-wishes following her surgery via Instagram.

In her post, she reflected on her disappointment at the injury but remained resolute in her determination to overcome this obstacle. She stated:

*”Gutted to know I suffered a broken foot in the game against West Ham but grateful the surgery went well. The greatest stories are those who defy all odds. Thanks to everyone for the heartwarming well wishes on my road to recovery. I appreciate every single one. I will continue working hard off the pitch during my rehab, and I can’t wait to be back doing what I love.”
