Juan Perea, FC Zurich's top scorer with seven goals, is out for the rest of the season. The 25-year-old Colombian suffered a torn Achilles tendon in his right foot on Sunday.

The injury occurred in the away match against Lugano, which FCZ won 3:0. The injury was caused by an uninvolved kick.

Perea joined FC Zurich last summer on loan from VfB Stuttgart. After a brilliant start with six goals in the first eleven rounds, he has only managed one goal since November.
