English club defender Jonathan Woodgate may miss Saturday's 8th round match of the English Premier League against Everton after suffering a foot injury during practice.

The 26-year-old player, who was loaned to Middlesbrough for the entire season by Real Madrid in August, has been undergoing rehabilitation for the past few days.

"Woodgate may not play against Everton due to a foot injury," the club's statement reads. "He is receiving treatment, but probably will not recover in time for Saturday's match."

Since coach Gareth Southgate has reached an agreement with the Spanish club on the player's transfer fee, J.Woodgate has the opportunity to stay in the Boro team for a longer period.

The Englishman, who represented Real for two years, suffered constant injuries and only managed to score 1 goal in 13 appearances wearing the colors of the Spanish capital club.
