It’s official. This is the club Montpellier confirming the information on its website.

Tunisian Jamel Saihi will not play over the entire season. Club champion of france wrote that the midfielder had “right knee surgery Friday.” Accordingly: “There will be unavailable until the end of the season.”

If Jamel Saihi do not play with Montpellier at the end of the season, no doubt that the Carthage Eagles of Tunisia should bite their fingers. Already absent from the 2013 AFCON, he also will miss the next round of qualifiers for the 2014 World Cup.
