West Ham striker Gianluca Scamacca has undergone surgery in Rome.

The Italy international's season is over, with his recovery expected to take three months.

The Gemelli hospital in Rome said in a statement: "An arthroscopy highlighted a lesion of the external meniscus with an anteriorly displaced flap and an initial suffering of the articular cartilage with a substantial integrity of the other structures.

"Only the displaced meniscal flap was removed and the residual one was regularised. Now the patient will continue with the rehabilitation which will allow him to make a full recovery in 2-3 months."

The surgery was performed by the team of Professor Ezio Adriani, director of the Sports Traumatology and Joint Surgery UOC of the Polyclinic.
