Undergoes surgery, done for season Mari has undergone surgery on his knee after dealing with meniscus units and is now out for the remainder of the season, the club announced Tuesday.

Impact Mari is set for a long spell on the sidelines, as he has undergone arthroscopic surgery to repair a damaged meniscus and is likely to miss around six to nine months with his recovery. Luckily for the club, this shouldn't be an issue, as he has only played three times for a total of 12 minutes off the bench this season, mainly serving in a reserve role and going unused on the bench, not being a crucial part of the team. He will now hope for a recovery period with no setbacks and eyes a return next season, probably not coming back until around October or November.
