Massimo Oddo will miss the rest of the season and is now a major doubt for Euro 2008 after undergoing meniscus surgery.

Milan released a statement this evening announcing that Oddo will have the operation on the medial meniscus ligament in his left knee tomorrow in Rome.

It is a bitter blow for the Rossoneri, who must already do without Ronaldo for the rest of the campaign.

Marcos Cafu, Serginho and Marek Jankulovski are struggling with injury, while Alessandro Nesta is suspended for the Serie A encounters with Cagliari and Juventus.

Oddo played the first 59 minutes of Milan’s 2-1 home defeat to Atalanta, but was substituted and replaced by Cristian Brocchi.

The extent of Oddo’s injury was not known and tests today revealed the serious problem requiring surgery.

It is not yet clear how long this will keep him sidelined, but the World Cup winner is now a doubt for Euro 2008, which kicks off on June 7.
