Liverpool striker Fernando Torres has been ruled out for the remainder of the season after undergoing knee surgery.
A spokesperson for Liverpool FC confirmed that Torres would be missing for at least six weeks, commenting:
“Fernando saw a specialist in Spain earlier today and it was decided that he would need surgery on a torn cartilage in his right knee.”
“We cannot comment ahead of the operation, but as a guide, the usual rehabilitation period for this type of procedure is around six weeks.”
The injury puts Torres' participation in the 2010 World Cup in doubt.
