No good news is coming from the hospital where Ruben Loftus-Cheek was taken immediately after the serious injury he suffered in the opening minutes of Milan-Parma, a match that the Rossoneri later lost. The English midfielder was carried off the field on a stretcher with a neck brace, as pointed out by Milan News.
According to Peppe Di Stefano, a journalist from Sky Sport Italia present at San Siro, Loftus-Cheek suffered a fracture of the alveolar bone, a severe injury that will require surgery during the night. There was no head trauma.
The recovery time is unknown and will need to be carefully assessed due to the seriousness of the situation. The player never lost consciousness.
