Summer surgery for Johnson

Last updated : 12 May 2009 By Michael Morris
The City defender missed just one game last year despite playing with a hiop problem and a suspected broken bone in his foot.

The only game he missed was the 3 - 1 home win over Burnley because of a fractured larynx sustained in the previous game against Crystal Palace.

Johnson, a potential transfer target for several Premier league clubs is expected to be fit in time for the new season.
