"In addition to losing the game late on, there was another negative note for AC Milan on Sunday as Ruben Loftus-Cheek had to be stretchered off. As MilanNews recall, Loftus-Cheek had to leave the San Siro pitch just minutes into the match against Parma, taken to hospital on a stretcher and in a neck brace. It was a scene that understandably left team-mates, opponents and even fans a bit shaken."
"Fortunately, the Englishman remained conscious after the collision with Corvi, but there was plenty of blood coming from his mouth. Hospital tests confirmed a fracture of the alveolar bone that also caused several broken teeth. This is a very serious injury that requires surgery and, contrary to initial reports, this will be performed this morning at the San Paolo Hospital in Milan."
"There are questions about whether his season could be over, given the nature of the injury. Immediately after the injury, but also at half-time and after the match, his team-mates were very worried. Parma goalkeeper Corvi went to the Milan dressing room after the match, asked for Loftus-Cheek's phone number and checked on his condition on WhatsApp, wishing him a speedy recovery on his Instagram story too."
