SOCCER: IAQUINTA TO HAVE MENISCUS OP

(ANSA) - Turin, October 26 - Juventus striker Vincenzo Iaquinta had a scan Monday that showed he required an operation on the meniscus of his left knee, the Turin club said.

The in-form Italy striker, 29, will have the operation on Tuesday, when the club will say how long he will be out.

Iaquinta tore the meniscus during training ahead of Sunday's 1-0 win at Siena that kept Juve in third place, two points behind Sampdoria and four behind leaders Inter Milan.
