Liverpool and Spanish striker Fernando Torres was set to have surgery today on his right knee and he's expected out for six weeks.
"Fernando saw a specialist in Spain earlier today and it was decided that he would need surgery on a torn cartilage in his right knee," Liverpool said in a statement. "We cannot comment ahead of the operation but, as a guide, the usual rehabilitation period for this type of procedure is around six weeks."
The biggest question is if he'll be ready for the World Cup and (all fingers crossed), he should be in the starting 11 when Spain take on Switzerland on June 16 in their first game.
Shimer and I are both huge Torres fans and we hope that our guy is at full strength in South Africa this summer. He's one of the most exciting players in the world and he deserves to have all his abilities when everyone is watching him.
