One of Lionel Messi's potential new Inter Miami strike partners will be out of action for the rest of the MLS season after suffering a serious injury.
Despite news of the Argentinian legend's impending arrival stateside, the Herons have experienced a torrid time on the pitch of late and have suffered six straight defeats in the league. Their recent struggles have now been compounded by a horrific injury suffered by forward Corentin Jean, who dropped to the ground in agony during a 3-1 loss against the New England Revolution.
The Frenchman was assessed by the club's medical staff and was found to have ruptured his left anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in the clash against Bruce Arena's team. The 27-year-old, who signed for the club last year, has made 15 appearances in MLS this term so far, scoring once.
