Charlton Athletic keeper set for surgery after nightmare start to Gillingham loan stay
Charlton Athletic goalkeeper Ashley Maynard-Brewer is set to be out until the end of the year due to the shoulder injury he suffered while on loan at Gillingham.
The 23-year-old Australian is on a season-long loan stay with the Kent club.
But the Gills will be forced back into the market in that position after Maynard-Brewer dislocated his shoulder at Dover.
Gillingham manager Neil Harris told Kent Online: “He is going to have a shoulder operation and he will be out until the Christmas period.
“We are going to have to replace Ash straight away.
“It is difficult to accept because we saw his attributes in the two weeks that he was with us but we are delighted Jake Turner is with us, we look forward to working with him, but we do need to bring in another goalkeeper to compete.
“It has come completely out the blue, something that we couldn’t budget for and we couldn’t expect, but we have to deal with it.”
Maynard-Brewer also suffered a shoulder injury and a broken nose while on loan with Ross County last season.
