Moussa Wague had knee surgery on Saturday after the bad injury he suffered this week and he will be out for nine months. Barcelona published a medical statement about the right-back, who is on loan at PAOK Salonica. The operation was a success on the tendons in his right knee.

It was done by Dr Ramonc Cugat under supervision from Barcelona medics. He will take conservative treatment regarding a knee ligament injury in the same knee.

Wague suffered the injury after trying to clear a ball to safety in his team's clash with Aris Thessaloniki. His knee clashed violently against the post which caused the injury to be so bad. He left the pitch in a lot of pain.

 

He had been having a good season with 11 appearances between the league and Europa League, getting a domestic assist.
