Milan forward Antonio Cassano will be missing from action for at least two months after undergoing surgery on his heart. Cassano had been struck down with a mystery illness on Tuesday evening.
A Milan statement read: "The cause was identified as the presence of a patent foramen ovale septal heart, detectable only with sophisticated specialised tests. The timing of therapy established has allowed a rapid recovery and an improvement of clinical conditions that are good.
"In the coming days the player will undergo a small surgical intervention cardiology (closure of the foramen ovale), the recovery time for return to playing will be better defined after the surgery, but probably will be a few months."
