Manchester United target Kevin Strootman is now going to be passed up by Manchester United after it was revealed that the Dutch internationals knee surgery did not go as well as expected claimed a former AS Roma doctor.
The Dutch defender suffered a knee injury in March of 2014 that kept him out of Louis van Gaal’s World Cup team, but the 25-year-old was still being linked to Old Trafford after the arrival of van Gaal as the clubs new manager.
After returning for Roma in January Strootman again suffered the same injury that once more forced him to go under the knife as he hope to end his injury misery.
According to former Roma club doctor Mario Brozzi the original surgery was not a success. “My impression is that the surgery on Strootman’s ligament did not go perfectly,” Brozzi has told La Partita Perfetta on Gold TV.
“I don’t know what happened to his knee, but his Cyclops syndrome results from a problem in the ligament’s position.
“The cartilaginous damage is determined by the extensive deficit. Now, if this is the situation, I see no way out. But it’s not up to me to say whether further surgery is needed.”
