THE PROPOSED deal that would have sent Melbourne's Jack Trengove to Richmond has been aborted after he failed a medical examination on Monday.
 
The 23-year-old former skipper's injured foot has not healed as hoped and he may require further surgery on the navicular fracture in his foot in the final year of his contract.
 
There are also fears for his long-term future in the game given the nature of the injury.  
 
It is shattering news for the on-baller who was hoping to get a fresh start with the Tigers.
 
 
Melbourne football manager Josh Mahoney confirmed that Trengove might require surgery that will put his 2015 season in jeopardy.
 
"Unfortunately a scan yesterday, as part of the Richmond medical, has showed another crack in his navicular, which is devastating for Jack and now we do all we can to support him through it," Mahoney said. 
 
"He's meeting with the surgeon again today. Hopefully we get a better picture of how bad it is and hopefully some timelines.
 
"There's a chance for more surgery. It could be a conservative approach. But all those things will be discussed around what is the best for Jack."

Trengove played just two games last season after a crack was found in his navicular bone.
 
He has played 81 games with the Demons but has not been able to match the superb form he displayed in his first two seasons.
 
Mahoney said the results of the scans were surprising.
 
"It was a shock to all the doctors how quickly it has deteriorated," Mahoney said.
 
"We've got to take a deep breath and get all the information and work out the best plan for him."

Mahoney said it could take a couple of weeks before the club can confirm the type of rehabilitation Trengove will undergo.
 
Richmond also released a statement, confirming the club would not pursue its plans to recruit Trengove. 
 
"After doing our due diligence, including discussions with our medical staff, we have decided not to pursue further discussions," said Richmond’s general manager of football, Dan Richardson.
 
"We wish Jack all the best for his future career."
