"It was a violent head-on-head collision left the former Chelsea player on the ground for several minutes with blood in his mouth, before he was later stretchered off the pitch with his neck in a brace. Fortunately, he did not lose consciousness or suffer any head injuries, but Milan were left angry."
"This is Loftus-Cheek's latest injury since joining Milan nearly three years ago: from muscle problems to appendicitis, to the facial trauma (rare for a footballer) he suffered yesterday."
"Last season, Loftus-Cheek played 28 games across the league and cup competitions, missing 26. In mid-December, a torn right hamstring kept him out for three months."
Ruben Loftus-Cheek suffered a fractured jaw from a violent head-on-head collision with Corvi during Milan's match against Parma, requiring surgery at San Paolo Hospital. The impact left him bleeding and requiring a neck brace before being stretchered off the pitch. He will be sidelined for approximately two months. This injury represents another setback in his troubled three-year spell at Milan, which has included appendicitis, hamstring tears, and various muscular problems. Despite a strong first season in 2023-24 with 40 appearances and 10 goals, subsequent seasons have been severely hampered by injuries, forcing him to miss significant stretches of competition.
