All the experts consulted have confirmed this necessity.”

The statement also said, “The surgery will be performed in the next few days at the ASPETAR hospital in Doha. It will take 3 to 4 months before he can return to training with the team.” Additional reports have said that the UK Surgeon, James Calder will be performing the surgery at the Aspetar Hospital in Doha.
