LATEST NEWS FROM AS ROMA – Paulo Dybala’s season ended early due to an injury that forced him to stop before the national team break. The injury to the semitendinosus tendon in his left leg, suffered in the match against Cagliari, necessitated surgery, which the Argentine striker decided to undergo in London, at the renowned Fortius Clinic, under the supervision of Dr. Andy Williams. This marks the beginning of a long rehabilitation course that will keep him off the field for several months.
L’intervento e i primi passi verso il recupero
The operation was entrusted to one of the top experts in orthopedic sports surgery, Professor Williams, who in the past has treated such soccer stars as Virgil van Dijk, Danny Welbeck, Andy Carroll, Theo Walcott and John Terry. Dybala left Ciampino yesterday morning for London, accompanied by his wife Oriana, his agent Jorge Antun and Roma doctor Emanuele Gregorace. He will stay in the English capital for a few days, with his discharge expected by the end of the week, after which he will return to Rome to continue his rehabilitation course.
Le tappe del recupero
Once back in Italy, the first phase of rehabilitation will include an absolute rest period of at least 10 days, during which Dybala will have to avoid any exertion on the operated leg. Once this initial phase has passed, he will gradually begin specific exercises aimed at reactivating the tendon and surrounding muscles. The increase in workloads will occur gradually, but it will be necessary to wait at least two or three months before he can intensify his training. The physiotherapy course will be crucial: first it will focus on recovering muscle strength and endurance, then will come the first running tests and targeted work to restore full function to the injured limb. If everything goes smoothly, the Joya’s return to the field could take place towards the end of August, just in time for the start of the new season.
Sempre vicino alla squadra
Despite the injury, Dybala does not want to move away from the Giallorossi environment. As soon as conditions allow him, he will be present in Trigoria to follow the training sessions of his teammates and, if possible, he will attend Roma’s matches, perhaps directly on the sidelines at the Stadio Olimpico. A way to stay mentally involved and to continue to feel an integral part of the group, while waiting to return to make his contribution on the green rectangle.
