Serie A: Tammy Abraham faces six months out with ACL injury

Roma striker, Tammy Abraham, is likely to be out for up to six months, after suffering an ACL injury in their final Serie A game of the season on Sunday.

Abraham landed on his left his left leg awkwardly during Roma’s 2-1 win over Spezia and was forced to leave the pitch on a medical cart.

According to Sky Sport Italy, Abraham was immediately taken to a private clinic for checks and results of the scan showed damage to the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee.

The 25-year-old is now expected to undergo surgery and will be sidelined for around five to six months.

Abraham had been linked with a return to the Premier League this summer but his injury has now scuppered any hopes of a deal.
