The Belgian secured the injury at the World Cup match against Russia. He goes to be knifed on Tuesday. Vermaelen, whose career began in Ajax, spent five seasons in Arsenal before his move to Barcelona. In a statement on Barcelona's official website: "First team footballer Thomas Vermaelen will undergo surgery on his right semitendinosus muscle by doctor Sakari Orava next Tuesday in Finland.
