Paris Saint-Germain's Italy international midfielder Marco Verratti has undergone surgery on a persistent groin injury, his club confirmed on Monday.
"As previously announced by the Club, Marco Verratti underwent surgery on Monday 16 May, at the Aspetar Hospital in Doha," read a statement released by the French champions, who added "the operation was a success."
Verratti has been troubled by the injury for several months and PSG announced at the beginning of May that the 23-year-old required an operation and would not be able to feature for his country at Euro 2016 as a result.
