A Newcastle fan is reportedly in stable condition in hospital after being stabbed in Milan ahead of a Champions League match in the Italian city.
Italian media reports that a 58-year-old man was stabbed three times — once in the back and twice in the arm.
The incident happened in the popular, bar-strewn area of Milan called Navigli, shortly after midnight (2200 GMT) on Monday.
It is not known whether it occurred during a clash between rival football fans or was a separate incident.
AC Milan hosts Newcastle later Tuesday in their Champions League opener.
