Bologna lose Verdi for three months

By Football Italia staff

Bologna forward Simone Verdi will be out for approximately three months, as he is set to undergo surgery.

He badly sprained his ankle with detachment of the medial malleolus during Saturday’s 1-0 defeat to Fiorentina.

A statement from the medical staff confirmed he will need to go under the knife.

It will be performed by Professor Giannini and his team at the Toniolo medical centre in Bologna tomorrow.

There are reports Verdi will be out of action for around three months.
