Another striker signing not gone to plan (albeit some element of misfortune in this one).

Can he go back to Stoke at some point or has the loan been cancelled?

Shame he has returned to keep our medical staff busy, and not opposition defenders.

No notification that the loan has been cancelled so he could return to Stoke when fit (assuming both sides agree).

Presumably, he would have to go back to Stoke, as he can't play for anyone else this season under FIFA 3 team regulations.

We could loan him back to Slavia Prague, but I can't see much point in that. Potential bit of game time, I suppose, but not really any progress. If he gets fit and ready to play, he might as well go back to Stoke for the rest of the season.

Not seen such Bravery!
He could be loaned back to Slavia Prague as another option, but that is it other than Stoke.
Another option is if he goes to a calendar year league as there are exceptions for those. Would mean he gets recalled in January and then sent to Sweden/Norway/MLS/Asia/Ireland in March either for the full season or (more likely) to return in the summer.
Surgery for him:
“Sima went back to Brighton and required groin surgery, which he had earlier this week," said Michael O'Neill
“The groin operation has an estimated return to training of four weeks. I think that’s a bit unrealistic and ambitious given that the player has had this for about three months now.
“We’ll just have to wait and see. He’s back at Brighton at this minute in time. He’ll rejoin us and we’ll see where he is and what part he is at in his rehab. He may or may not play some part for us this season.”

Has he actually played for Stoke?

Yes and, from memory, quite regularly at the start of the season, but not since the injury, ie 3 months.

Perhaps we could get Arsenal to intervene on the rules on our behalf.

Two league appearances, 73 minutes, two in the league cup (50 minutes in total). Sadly, not been the best of loans so far.
Looks like the injury has ruined his loan and season. However, there must be worst places to have an injury than the groin. Hopefully is fully fixable and he will get some game time at Stoke towards the end of the season. Best luck to him with the op recovery.
