Roma's Dybala to undergo surgery

(ANSA) - ROME, MAR 20 - AS Roma Argentina forward Paulo Dybala will undergo surgery in the coming days following an injury to his left semitendinosus tendon, the club said in a statement on Thursday.
    "The player and the club have mutually agreed that this is the best course of action for an optimal recovery", AS Roma said in a statement.
    "Wishing Paulo a speedy recovery - we look forward to seeing you back soon!", it added.
    The forward injured the semitendinosus tendon of his left thigh during his side's 1-0 home win over Cagliari on Sunday.
    The 31-year-old came off 13 minutes after taking the field as a second-half substitute.
    He has been central to Roma's rise up the Serie A table to seventh place since Claudio Ranieri came out of retirement to return as coach in November when they were four points above the relegation zone. (ANSA).
