AC Milan defender Alessandro Nesta has had successful surgery on
his right knee.
The operation was carried out at the Villa Stuart hospital in
Rome.
Nesta missed Milan's 4-0 loss to Manchester United in the
Champions League on Wednesday and was diagnosed with a torn tendon
Friday. He will be out for the rest of the season.
The center back has had several serious injuries in his
career, beginning with one to his right knee at the 1998 World Cup.
A left foot injury stopped him at the 2002 World Cup and a muscle
problem plagued him at the 2006 World Cup. He played only one game
last season while he dealt with a bad back.
