Rick Karsdorp will undergo surgery for a torn anterior cruciate ligament tomorrow, having only made his Roma debut last night.

The full-back already had a knee operation mere days after he completed the €14m transfer from Feyenoord over the summer.

He finally made his debut for the club in Wednesday evening’s 1-0 Serie A victory over Crotone.

However, it is now confirmed he tore his ACL and will go under the knife using keyhole surgery at the Villa Stuart clinic with Professor Mariani.
