Striker Antonio Cassano successfully underwent heart surgery.

The Italian player first came to the attention of doctors over the weekend, when he began to feel unwell after a match with "Roma", had trouble coordinating his movements, and spoke with difficulty.

It was revealed that there was a disruption in blood flow to the brain, so it was decided to take surgical action.

It is hoped that the football player from the main team of Milan will be able to return to the field after 4-6 months.
