Sassuolo defender Timo Letschert went under the knife today after rupturing the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee.
The 24-year-old went off during Sunday’s 6-1 defeat to Lazio at the Stadio Olimpico.
He was operated on by Professor Herbert Schoenhuber, assisted by Sassuolo chief medic Franco Combi, in Milan this morning.
A statement from the club confirmed the surgery was a success, but did not suggest a timeframe for his recovery.
This type of injury usually requires at least five to six months on the sidelines.
