Gonazalo Rodriguez Out For Seven Months
Villarreal centre-half Gonzalo Rodriguez has been ruled out of action for seven months due to a knee ligament injury. This comes as a big blow for Villarreal, particularly following injuries to midfielders Josico and Robert Pires.
Rodriguez fell injured in the 57th minute of yesterday’s Ramon de Carranza Trophy clash against Real Madrid, and will need corrective surgery.
The expected time of recovery from such an injury averages around six months, but scans revealed a larger break in the ligaments, prompting the medical staff to set the recovery period at close to seven months.
This could rule him out of action for pretty much the entire season, compounding Villarreal’s defensive problems.
The player had also missed the final stretch of last season through injury, and had only just made a successful return.
Man Villareal are in real trouble now. Poor Gonzalo, how unlucky can you be. Missing the crucial CL games and possibly the WC last season and now this :(
I guess Villareal need to get a CB now ?
