Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba has undergone successful surgery to fix his meniscus problem.
The midfielder has not played an official game for the Bianconeri since he joined them, after suffering a knee problem in pre-season.
He initially decided against surgery last month and chose an alternative recovery method to fix the problem.
However, after training twice on the grass, he was not satisfied with the result that the method was giving him and underwent surgery, which could force him to miss the World Cup.
Juventus have now reported that the procedure was successful, and the midfielder will now begin his road to recovery.
A statement from the club reads, as quoted by Football Italia:
“Tonight, Paul Pogba He underwent a selective external arthroscopic meniscectomy. The surgery, performed by Prof. Roberto Rossi in the presence of the Juventus team doctor, Luca Stefanini, was a complete success.”
Juve FC says
Pogba has wasted a month’s recovery time after deciding not to have surgery sooner.
However, the most important thing is that he has now agreed to undergo the operation, which will help him recover better and return to the pitch without pain.
Hopefully he’ll be back on the court soon and showing his class for everyone to see why we signed him.
