Mutu will not undergo surgery

Fiorentina ace Adrian Mutu will not need to undergo surgery to his knee, according to club doctor Paolo Manetti.

Mutu missed the clash against Inter on Wednesday, because of his knee problem.

“We have decided to take a conservative approach, so we will not operate his knee,” said Manetti.

“This is the best solution and we believe everything will work out fine. Adrian has been suffering recently and his injury was aggravated during the match against Palermo.

“We thought he would have been able to recover shortly, but yesterday he was painful so we all agreed to rest him.”

Mutu will along with Alberto Gilardino also miss the game against Siena this weekend. Gilardino is out suspended, due to his handball goal last weekend.
