Swansea defender Angel Rangel has revealed he broke a metatarsal bone in his right foot during his side's 2-1 defeat to Hull on Saturday.

The right-back was substituted after 33 minutes of the Premier League match at the KCOM Stadium and posted about his injury on Twitter on Sunday.

He wrote: 'Absolutely gutted to have fractured the metatarsal of my right foot in yesterday's game. A big setback but I'll come back stronger!'

Swansea full-back Angel Rangel has posted a picture of him wearing a protective boot

Rangel will now have to spend a lengthy period on the sidelines to allow his injury to heal

The Spaniard also posted an X-ray of his right foot and a photo of the same foot in a plastic boot.

Former Swansea striker Lee Trundle, who now acts as an ambassador for the club, offered his support. Trundle tweeted: 'gutted mate, you will be back x.'

The defeat left Swansea 16th in the table, three points above the final relegation spot which is occupied by Hull.

With Rangel out, Swans manager Paul Clement will hope fellow full-back Kyle Naughton returns to training this week after missing the game at Hull with a slight hamstring problem.

Swansea's next Premier League match is at Bournemouth next Saturday.
