His coach Brian McKeown confirmed the news to the Irish Independent today.

It seems that there is a fracture in his left leg... I spoke with him on the phone this afternoon and he was very positive, but he was disappointed.  He expects to be confined to a wheelchair

A man was arrested in connection with the attack on Sunday but he was released later that day without charge. It had previously been reported that Nevin may have been left with a broken leg after the attack. Now it has emerged that both of his legs are broken.
