“He’ll undergo an operation Monday onwards and will be out for three months,” said Clermont coach Franck Azema.
“It’s a long time because he’s just coming back from another operation. He was feeling really good, we couldn’t wait to see him back again.”
The cervical hernia was spotted in a compulsory biannual scan put in place to better safeguard players’ health.
Abendanon, 32, won two caps for England.
