BARCELONA, Spain - Chile midfielder Arturo Vidal underwent right knee surgery on Wednesday, five weeks before his countrys first match at the World Cup.
George Brett

Ramon Cugat, and was accompanied by Chile and Juventus team doctors. The club,
which won the Serie A on Sunday, said Vidal needed arthroscopic surgery on the
lateral meniscus of his right knee. "We dont dare to say a recovery time because
theres a World Cup in the making," Cugat after the surgery. "There are many
factors at play here: He has to be in good form, in a good mood, and his knee
has to respond well. But hes a very courageous player with a strong character,
and hes always positive. Hes a winner." Vidal has been instrumental in helping
Juventus to three successive Serie A titles since arriving from Bayer Leverkusen
in 2011. He was struggling with problems in his right knee for more than a
month, but continued to play for Juventus until his injury worsened during the
second leg of the Europa League semifinal against Benfica last Thursday. "The
treatment that has been carried out is correct," Cugat said, fending off growing
criticism in Europe and Chile about how Juventus managed his injury. "I can say
that I have many players, at the international level, who have continued to play
with a tear to the lateral meniscus." Since joining Juventus, Vidal has
transformed impressively from being a stopper to making himself into a versatile
player who recovers lost passes, sets up goals, and often scores. He has eight
goals in 46 appearances for Chile, and become the national teams best hope in
the World Cup. Chile has one of its strongest teams, but it faces huge
challenges in Brazil. Chile is in a group with Spain, the Netherlands and
Australia. Even if it advances as the groups second qualifier, it would likely
have to play against host and five-time champion Brazil. But fans remain
confident that Vidal will recover in time, and Chile will continue its solid
record: It lost only two out of 15 games last year, including a draw with Spain
and win over England in friendlies.
