Tuesday keyhole surgery

The 30-year-old midfielder was injured on Monday, Nov. 24, during the warm-up for the PSV U21-RKC Waalwijk match at De Herdgang. He had previously played in three matches with the pledges, but dropped out with a new injury to his knee. The keyhole surgery took place last Tuesday in the Netherlands, after a period of rest and modified training. Earlier this year Schaars had surgery in the U.S. because he had been struggling with knee problems for some time.
