Picture Ono - hampered during World Cup. (Allsport)

ONO SET FOR OP

Feyenoord's Japanese midfielder Shinji Ono will go under the surgeon's knife to cure an appendix problem which plagued him during the World Cup.

Ono postponed the operation so he could play at the finals, and was instrumental as the co-hosts topped their group.

But defeat to Turkey in the second round means Ono is now free to have the surgery.

He will have the treatment in Tokyo in the next few days, and is expected to be fully fit when pre-season training resumes at the Dutch club.
