The Everton midfielder suffered the horrific injury in the 1-1 draw between the Toffees and the Baggies at Goodison Park on Saturday.

But Everton have now confirmed surgery went well and McCarthy has thanked well-wishers for their support.

Salomon Rondon, who inadvertently kicked McCarthy's leg, was left visibly distraught by the incident and has vowed to visit the Everton midfielder during his recovery.
