Natali facing length spell on sidelines
Bologna defender Cesare Natali is facing up to six months on the sidelines after damaging his knee against former club Fiorentina on Sunday.
A statement issued on bolognafc.it confirmed the 33-year-old will require surgery after damaging ligaments in his right knee during his return to the Stadio Artemio Franchi - a game which Bologna lost 1-0.
Natali signed a two-year contract with the Rossoblu this summer after spending three years with the Tuscan giants.
