Ruben van Bommel suffered a serious knee injury in last Sunday's match against Ajax. The 21-year-old striker is unlikely to return to action for PSV this season.
That is the conclusion of the medical examination that Van Bommel underwent Monday morning. A detailed treatment plan will be made in the coming days. "The moment it happened, I actually felt right away that it was wrong," Van Bommel said. "This is a hard blow, I was enormously motivated to make it an unforgettable season with PSV. But the button is going to change quickly. I am going to do everything I can to return to the pitch in the best possible way and in the meantime I will continue to support the team in the background."
PSV wishes Van Bommel a speedy recovery and will support him in every possible way in his rehabilitation process.
