West Ham's Yarmolenko out for six months after surgery

Yarmolenko suffered the injury in Saturday’s 1-0 Premier League defeat against local rivals Tottenham Hotspur at the London Stadium and had surgery on Monday.

“Andriy’s operation went well and we will now work hard to support him throughout the rehabilitation process," West Ham's Head of Medical Services Richard Collinge said in a statement https://www.whufc.com/news/articles/2018/october/22-october/andriy-yarmolenko-undergoes-successful-surgery.
