Arsenal will miss Czech midfielder Tomas Rosicky for up to two months pending his recovery from a recent knee surgery, Czech media said Wednesday, citing his agent Pavel Paska.
The 34-year-old injury-prone Rosicky “underwent an arthroscopic surgery on his knee” on August 4,” Paska said. “The recovery is expected to take four to eight weeks.”
Rosicky, captain of the Czech national team, suffered the injury during a Euro 2016 qualifier in Iceland in June.
