Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Sergio Asenjo will miss the Europa
League final because of a knee injury he sustained during
Saturday's league game against Racing Santander.
Atletico said on its Web site Sunday that Asenjo is set to
have knee surgery on Tuesday after a ligament was damaged in the
1-1 draw.
Atletico faces Fulham in the Europa League final in Hamburg.
Asenjo, who has been the team's second choice goalkeeper for much
of the season after David de Gea, will almost certainly also miss
the Copa del Rey final against Sevilla on May 19.
