"Roma" defender K. Strootman will undergo knee surgery

"Roma" defender Kevin Strootman will have to undergo surgery due to a leg injury. The 24-year-old Dutchman suffered a leg injury in last weekend's match against "Fiorentina" club. The player's performance at the "Artemio Franchi" stadium was cut short in the 34th minute - Strootman played only his sixth match after a serious cruciate ligament injury suffered last year. The player announced on social media that he hopes to recover quickly and be back defending the colors of the "Roma" club in a few weeks. Starting his career as a legionnaire in 2013, the Dutchman has also played for his homeland teams "Rotterdam", "Utrecht" and PSV.
