Inter Milan's Alexis Sanchez Undergoes Ankle Surgery, Reportedly out 3 Months

Inter Milan forward Alexis Sanchez will reportedly be out for around three months after he underwent surgery on a dislocated ankle.

In a statement on Inter's official website, the club confirmed that after consultation with Dr Ramon Cugat in Barcelona, Sanchez had an operation on his left ankle on Wednesday afternoon to address the injury he suffered while on international duty with Chile.

The club said the procedure "went exactly as planned."

According to Goal, the surgery will keep him out of action for three months, so he won't feature again until 2020.
