Sandy MacIver: Manchester City goalkeeper undergoes surgery after ACL tear

Sandy MacIver joined Manchester City in 2022 from Everton

Manchester City goalkeeper Sandy MacIver has undergone surgery after rupturing her anterior cruciate ligament.

The 25-year-old was substituted during Scotland's 0-0 draw with Serbia last Saturday after an awkward landing.

City are already without Ellie Roebuck, while first choice Khiara Keating had to withdraw from international duty with England.

City say Maclver's knee surgery was "successful".

Maclver, who joined City from Everton in 2022, has made just two appearances this season but would have been hoping for further opportunities in the coming weeks given City's problems in goal.

Keating withdrew from England's squad for their Euro 2025 qualifiers against Sweden and the Republic of Ireland this week to "manage" a knee injury.

Roebuck, 24, is currently unavailable after suffering a stroke earlier this season.

City are top of the WSL and hold a three-point lead over defending champions Chelsea, who have a game in hand.

City are next in action on 21 April, when they host West Ham.
