Jonny Evans has apologised to Stuart Holden for the challenge which will rule the Bolton midfielder out for up to six months.<\/p>\n

Holden, 25, needed 26 stitches in a gash in his knee and was heading to London on Monday for surgery.<\/p>\n

Manchester United defender Evans was sent off as his side went on to record a 1-0 victory at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n

It means the USA international will take no further part in the season, including the FA Cup semi-final against Stoke at Wembley on April 17.<\/p>\n

Bolton boss Owen Coyle refused to condemn the Northern Ireland international after the game and Holden revealed on his Twitter account Evans had apologised to him on the phone.<\/p>\n

He said: “Just had sincere phone call from Jonny Evans wishing me best in recovery, def (sic) wasn’t intentional just unfortunate part of game.”<\/p>\n

Holden thanked fans for their support and added: “I can promise you I will come back stronger and better than before. Have had back luck in the past and will continue to beat it.”<\/p>\n

Coyle is now focussed on nursing the Aberdeen-born player back to full fitness.<\/p>\n

He said: “First and foremost our main concern is Stuart and his recovery. He will get all the time and support he needs.<\/p>\n

“Stuart has been outstanding this season and has shown he is one of the best midfielders in the Barclays Premier League.<\/p>\n

“He has such desire, strength of character and a winning mentality he will draw on those attributes in his rehabilitation.”<\/p>\n

Holden, who arrived at the Rebok Stadium in Janauary 2010 after a successful spell with MLS side Houston Dynamo, has been unlucky with injuries.<\/p>\n

He suffered a hamstring strain early on then a broken leg after a challenge by Holland’s Manchester City midfielder Nigel de Jong in an international friendly with the USA.<\/p>\n

Holden was out for eight weeks but returned in time to play in the World Cup in South Africa. However he again broke down at the turn of 2011 with a thigh problem.<\/p>\n

Holden quickly regained his form to help Bolton remain in a lofty league position and reach the last four of the FA Cup.<\/p>\n

Now he will watch the rest of the season unfold from the touchline, while he is also ruled of the USA’s Gold Cup campaign in June.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
