The midfielder is having a third operation on the troublesome joint, this time to have his cruciate ligament rebuilt, after initially rupturing it in a match against Napoli in March 2014.
The Dutch international then returned to training and playing, but made just six Serie A appearances before he was forced to have another operation for Cyclops Syndrome.
This morning it was confirmed that he will be out for several months while he recovers from another surgery.
“Kevin Strootman today underwent reconstructive ACL [anterior cruciate ligament] surgery on his left knee,” the Giallorossi confirmed in a statement.
“The operation went well and the midfielder will now continue with his rehabilitation program.”
