"Bayern" attacker Olić to miss rest of the season (VIDEO) © EuroFootball.com

Munich striker Ivica Olic will not be able to play in matches for about half a year due to a knee injury. This week, the footballer will undergo surgery on his left knee in the United States, and the rehabilitation process will take time. "It's natural that I am very disappointed," said Olic, who scored 19 goals in all competitions last season. "I hoped to continue the successful last season, so I had high expectations." Olic suffered the injury in August while representing the Croatian national team. On the list of long-term injured players of Bayern Munich, who are currently in 7th place in the German championship, Olic joins other attacking style players such as wingers Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery, as well as striker Miroslav Klose.
