Dani Calvo to undergo surgery: Real Oviedo lose their captain
The Oviedo centre-back hurt his left knee against Cadiz and will go under the knife in the coming days; the club has not set a return date.
Dani Calvo, captain and centre-back of Real Oviedo, will need surgery after the injury that forced him off before finishing the first half of Saturday's match against Cadiz. Medical tests at ClĂnica Asturias confirmed the problem in his left knee, and the medical staff opted for an operation in the coming days.
The club says the injury affects the postero-medial complex of that knee, but has given no forecast for his return to action. According to MARCA, Calvo has recently reached 200 appearances for Oviedo and is one of the most experienced members of the dressing room. His absence comes just as the new coach takes charge and must find solutions in central defence.
