The Arsenal Star Takehiro Tomiyasu has suffered an operation on her knee and the rest of the campaign will be lost.
The defender of Japan has played only six minutes of football this season, arriving as a late substitute in the victory of the Premier League over Southampton in October, after a three -month recovery of a knee injury that saw him lose the beginning of The season.
Mail Sport previously revealed that Tomiyasu's long -term physical aptitude is increasing concern, with his second knee operation now confirmed.
On Instagram, the defender wrote: 'A few days ago I underwent surgery in the knee and I already started my rehabilitation to do what I love the most.
“It has been the most difficult period of my safe career and continues a little more, but I will not give up. Thank you for your support and see you again. '

The Arsenal Takehiro Tomiyasu star has suffered a second operation on her knee
The defender has played only six minutes of football for the gunners during the campaign.
The rest of the 2024-25 campaign is expected to be lost now.
In 2023, Tomiyasu underwent an original knee operation that kept the 26 -year -old out of action for three months.
With that in mind, a second knee procedure arrives as a blow to Tomiyasu, whose time in Arsenal has already been harassed by injury problems.
Speaking last month, chief coach Mikel Arteta provided a positive update about Tomiyasu's physical condition saying: 'Tomi has done some things in the field, but now because it has been a long -term injury, we need to see how fast Progress and how it reacts. '
But now there is some pessimism regarding the recovery of Tomiyasu, the news amplified by conversations about a potential operation.
The Tomiyasu contract has 18 months to run, but with the Arsenal well supplied on the back, the defender can hear offers for him at the end of the season.
However, any plan to sell Tomiyasu, who did not travel to Dubai on the club's mid -winter trip, may have to be filed after his operation.
Tomiyasu becomes the last star to be marginalized for the Gunners, along with the German International Kai Hvertz.
Havertz will miss the rest of the campaign after suffering an injury in the hamstrings during a training camp in the United Arab Emirates, as the Mail Sport first reported it.

The German successfully submitted surgery on Saturday and will begin a recovery program that will run to the preseason.
Hvertz posted on social networks: 'The last days have been difficult to process both physically and mentally. But yesterday was a good day. A successful OP and a victory '
'Thank you for all the messages of support in recent days, it has really helped.
“Now I am concentrated on my trip to full aptitude and providing all the support I can give to the background team.”
