The surgery to insert a rod and stabilize the lower leg of Canadian defender Moïse Bombito was successful, according to TSN's Matthew Scianitti.
"Montreal's always special, the connection, the energy, my family and friends," Bombito told TSN's Matthew Scianitti. "Not being there hurts, but I'm keeping perspective. This recovery is part of the journey, and every bit of it is about being ready for the World Cup. I have faith."
Canada is set to face Australia at Stade Saputo in Montreal on Friday, before heading to Sports Illustrated Stadium in Harrison, New Jersey to play Colombia on Tuesday.
Bombito suffered a non-displaced fracture of his left tibia in the second half of Nice's game against Monaco on Sunday.
The 25-year-old had an MRI that confirmed the injury, and is expected to miss the next four to five months of action.
The injury is to the same leg that Bombito sustained a stress fracture in late last season.
A wrist injury also kept him out of Canada's 2025 CONCACAF Gold Cup squad.
The Montreal native has made 19 appearances for Canada's men's national team and has started in all of them.
He joined Nice from the Colorado Rapids last year on a deal that runs through 2028.
