Menez visits back specialist

By Football Italia staff

Jeremy Menez will see the doctor who operated on his back after the Milan striker continued to feel pain.

Milan Channel confirmed the Frenchman will fly out to Monte Carlo to see specialist Bernard Massini, who performed the surgery to remove a recurring hernia on June 11.

Menez has struggled with back pain for months and is not fully healed, so did not take part in today’s training session.

He already went under the knife for this issue three years ago.

It’s reported Coach Sinisa Mihajlovic sat down with Menez today to reassure him that the most important thing is to fully recover.

His position in the Rossoneri squad is nonetheless safe.

Menez will miss this Sunday's Serie A opener against Fiorentina.
