Malaga left-back Federico Ricca will not play again this season after undergoing surgery on Tuesday.

The Uruguayan has been troubled by an injury in his left shoulder all season and it is hoped that surgery will repair it for good.

Ricca's surgery was postponed to allow him to play against Real Madrid on Sunday in the absence of the suspended Luis Hernández.

The 23-year-old has been under the knife last summer and in October but still has problems with movement. He is expected to recover in time for preseason.
