Surgery blow for Knezevic

Saturday 1 November, 2008
Juventus’ injury problems are continuing after the club confirmed that Dario Knezevic requires knee surgery.

The Croatian international stopper twisted his knee in the 2-1 midweek win over Bologna and subsequent tests have revealed the need for the procedure.

The operation, in agreement with parent club Livorno, will take place in Arezzo, Tuscany, on Sunday 2 November.

Only once surgery has taken place will the Italian giants reveal how long the international stopper will be sidelined for.

Knezevic joined the club in the summer on loan from Livorno after the Bianconeri won a transfer tug of war with rivals Torino. He’s played in three Serie A games so far.

The loss of the stopper will come as a blow to boss Claudio Ranieri who is already without eight of his first team squad, including Gigi Buffon, David Trezeguet and Christian Poulsen.

The Old Lady take on Roma this evening in a game which could catapult them into the Scudetto race. They then take on Real Madrid in Spain on Tuesday.

Knezevic's injury proness was not a secret when we got him. Actually, i believe it was exactly the knee that was the problem.

The chances were big that he'll get injured all the time or that the knee problem will mean one big serious injury, just like we knew what to expect when we signed Andrade.
We were playing with fire.

Yeah, its getting monotonous with these knee injuries but with Dario its only a loan as compared to the 8m odd we paid for Andrade, Knezevic got the same knee injury in the pre-season tournament, Alen.

I think he got the same one also at the EURO.

The performance of Chiellini, Legro and Mellberg had made me forgotten abt this guy ...

Have a feeling he will end up like Stendardo ...
Expecting a new CB.

Btw, the current mgmt has tough luck purchasing a CB,
Chiellini is a LB convert, Legro was bought during the Triad period, Mellberg comes for free ...

Knezevic, Criscito, Andrade ...
