Aberdeen boss Jimmy Thelin confirmed attacker Pape Gueye has had successful surgery on a thigh injury that will rule him out for up to four months.
The 25-year-old suffered a quad muscle tear during training last week.
Former Senegal under-20 international Gueye was in red-hot form and, with five league goals, remains the Premiership’s top scorer despite his injury set-back.
Thelin confirmed the attacker has undergone surgery in London and will now begin his rehabilitation.
He said: “It is a tough thing that happened to Pape.
“He is on his way back after his surgery in London and he will arrive this afternoon.”
