Manly Warringah Sea Eagles and Australian lock Jake Trbojevic will undergo surgery this Wednesday.
Trbojevic sustained a pectoral tear in the Test match against England in the Rugby League World Cup on Friday night. It was his first starting game for Australia in just his third Test for his country.
Sea Eagles Medical Staff are confident Trbojevic will return in round one of the 2018 Telstra Premiership season.
