The 23-times capped international defender plays for Romanian side Vaslui, and during their game on Monday night, was kicked in the mouth by Cluj Cadu.

Milanov went down immediately and was rushed to hospital, with Cadu receiving a red card for his reckless kick. Afterwards Vaslui coach Viorel Hizo described the incident as a ‘crime’.

According to Reuters, he lost two teeth on the pitch from the impact of the kick, while another three were removed when he arrived at the hospital.

An especially bruising encounter for Milanov in the Romanian league.
