Corinthians left-back Hugo underwent surgery on his right knee on Wednesday morning to repair a meniscus injury. The player said in a post that the operation had gone well and he thanked supporters.

He was hurt on five February in the first half against Capivariano at Neo Química Arena in the Campeonato Paulista. In a challenge, his leg became stuck in the turf, he fell and immediately asked to be replaced.

Examinations the following day confirmed the issue. There is no set timeframe for Hugo to resume ball work at CT Joaquim Grava.

While he is in the medical department, Corinthians will turn to Matheus Bidu and Fabrizio Angileri at left-back.

Angileri, an Argentine, was re-signed this week after failing to agree a renewal with the club in December last year.
