Arsenal midfielder Abou Diaby undergoes knee surgery, out till March

Abou Diaby has suffered another injury setback

In a fresh injury blow to Arsenal midfielder Abou Diaby, The Mirror reports that Diaby underwent another surgery on his cruciate knee ligament.

Diaby injured his leg in March early this year and it now looks like he will not be in action until March next year.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said, “He had a little key hole surgery again, on the the knee because his knee blew up every time he did something so it is now six months after the cruciate.

“He could not even jog yet so with new surgery it is a setback for him so competitive football cannot be played before March.”

While fans have lost patience when it comes to the injury prone French player, Wenger has not given up on him yet.

“He has one and a half years to go on his contract.”
