Already in the 11th minute, Loftus-Cheek had to leave the pitch on a stretcher after a collision with Corvi. Today, it was confirmed that the 30-year-old forward faces a long and difficult recovery ahead.

According to Sky Sports, Loftus-Cheek has been diagnosed with a fracture of the alveolar process as well as multiple fractures of the jaw and teeth. The English forward will require several surgeries before he can begin rehabilitation, a process expected to last several months.

Most likely, Loftus-Cheek’s season has come to an early end.

This season, Ruben Loftus-Cheek has played 27 matches for Milan, scoring 3 goals and providing 1 assist.
