LONDON: Tottenham Hotspur’s Brazil midfielder Sandro will be sidelined for at least three months after undergoing surgery on his left knee, the Premier League club said in a statement. The 22-year-old was forced to withdraw from his country’s Copa America campaign on Tuesday, with scans confirming he had torn his lateral meniscus and suffered a calf strain. “The knee specialist has advised a three-month rehabilitation period before a return to full training,” the club said.
