Ribery undergoes buttocks surgery

France’s Franck Ribery has undergone surgery for bruised buttocks with Bayern Munich hoping he will be fit for its Champions League clash at Arsenal in less than a fortnight.

“Hopefully, he can play in London,” said Bayern coach Pep Guardiola with defending champion Bayern travelling to Arsenal for the last 16, first-leg clash on February 19. Bayern’s media director Markus Hoerwick said the 30-year-old had taken a “knock to the buttocks” and went under the knife on Thursday, ruling him out of today’s league match at Nuremberg with Bayern 13 points clear in the league.
