A Newcastle United fan has been stabbed after a gang attacked him in Milan on the eve of the club\u2019s return to the Champions League.<\/p>\n

The Daily Mail report, via Milano Today, that a 58-year-old British man was ambushed by a group of seven or eight men on Monday night at around midnight.<\/p>\n

The man was stabbed in his arm and back near the city centre, before police stepped in and he was rushed to hospital where he is in a stable condition.<\/p>\n

The report states that nothing was stolen from the victim and the motive for the attack is still unknown.<\/p>\n

Newcastle are aware of the reported attack and are in contact with local authorities in Milan.<\/p>\n

A club statement read: \u2018We are deeply concerned by reports that a supporter was seriously assaulted in Milan on Monday evening and we are liaising with local authorities to understand the circumstances.<\/p>\n

\u2018Our thoughts are with the supporter and their family and we hope for a full and speedy recovery.\u2019<\/p>\n
