Bournemouth midfielder Brooks, who scored seven Premier League goals after joining from Sheffield United last year, will be out for up to 12 weeks.
Bournemouth said in a statement Brooks sustained ligament damage during Saturday’s pre-season friendly against Brentford.
“Following assessment by the club’s medical department, Brooks will now miss the opening months of the 2019-20 season,” the club said.
The news is also a blow to Wales manager Ryan Giggs, with the 22-year-old having become a key member of the national squad.
Brooks is likely to miss Euro 2020 qualifiers against Azerbaijan, Slovakia and Croatia in the coming months.
