Hull City's Steve Harper was forced to exit the pitch during the Tigers' Premier League meeting with Arsenal on Saturday with an apparent arm injury, as shared by the Hull Daily Mail's Philip Buckingham:
The veteran stopper was playing in just his second Premier League match of the season, replacing the injured Allan McGregor, and initially appeared to injure his shoulder landing awkwardly after making a save.
He clutched his arm as he came off the pitch, however, and was replaced by Eldin Jakupovic. Sky Sports commentator Geoff Shreeves was disappointed for him, as he was having an excellent match:
Harper spent 10 years with Newcastle United before moving to Hull City, and with a multitude of loan stints in the lower leagues, his chances to play in the Premier League have always been limited.
Hull are now down to their third-choice stopper in Jakupovic, with McGregor not expected to return to health for another two weeks.
