Crisis looms for Fergie as Vidic out for eight weeks
Vidic, who missed the final five months of last season after rupturing his cruciate in the Champions League defeat to Basle, missed Sunday’s Premier League win at Liverpool after complaining of tightness in his right knee. However, a subsequent examination revealed a greater problem, prompting Vidic to be sent for an operation, which has now been completed.
“Nemanja Vidic has had a meniscus operation on his right knee and will be out for around eight weeks,” said a club spokesman.
