Iván López will be operated on for the cruciate ligament rupture in his left knee on 17th October in Barcelona by Dr Cugat.

The defender suffered this serious injury whilst training with team last Tuesday at Buñol Training Ground. The medical tests carried out afterwards confirmed the severity of the injury which will keep one of Levante's captains away from the pitch over the following months.
