Despite being face with the possibility of reconstructive ankle surgery, injured D.C. United veteran Ben Olsen says he up for anything that gets him back on the field.
The midfielder has yet to play this season and will likely be going under the knife soon, but says retirement speculation is premature.
"I think everybody that knows me knows that I'm a glutton for punishment, and I'll go through what it takes to get back on the field because I’m not ready," Olsen told the Washington Examiner.
"I"m not ready mentally and I'm not ready physically to hang it up."
"We're going to do (surgery)," he concluded. "And we'll do as many as we have to."
