Armani Milano has ruled out star forward Luigi Datome for the next three weeks, because of a knee injury.
The Italian forward got injured a few days ago and underwent surgery to repair the damage in his left knee.
“Gigi Datome underwent arthroscopic surgery on his left knee for the removal of a bone fragment, following a trauma reported during the first quarter of the Sassari game. The player will be re-evaluated in three weeks,” Armani Milano announced on Tuesday.
