- The Uruguayan striker could be on top for the first round of Champions
The Uruguayan striker of FC Barcelona, Luis Suarez, will be operated on Sunday of the right knee, due to an injury to the external meniscus, FC Barcelona reported.
The intervention will be carried out by Dr. Ramón Cugat, after which the Catalan club informs that it will issue a statement to publicize the player's recovery process.
It is not the first time that the player is suffering from problems in this knee, because last year he lost the final of the Copa del Rey against Valencia to be able to deal with a similar problem with an arthroscopy.
Suárez participated last Thursday in the game that his team played Saudi Arabia against Atlético de Madrid (2-3), in which the Catalans were eliminated from the Spanish Super Cup.
So far there is nothing official, but everything indicates that the Uruguayan striker will be low between five and six weeks low in order to reach the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 against Naples.
