Andrés Ferrari set back again; no return timeline
The Sporting striker has re-aggravated his peroneal injury and the club will wait for new medical conclusions, surgery not ruled out.
Another medical setback
Andrés Ferrari (Sporting) has re-aggravated the serious peroneal injury he suffered, when he was close to returning to training and competition. As Sport reports, this has forced the club to review his medical status again and to take even more precautions, just as his recovery had entered the final stretch.
The delay matters: the comeback window that was being discussed recently has to be paused. Ferrari travelled to Barcelona to be assessed by top specialists and determine the current state of the injury and what the next step should be.
No scenarios ruled out
According to Sport, there is currently no single plan confirmed. A conservative treatment option remains on the table, but the possibility of another surgery also returns if the specialists consider it the best way to guarantee a full recovery. The club, notes the outlet, will wait for the medical findings before deciding.
Club support, patience first
Despite the setback, Sporting’s message is one of full backing: they will accompany the player throughout the process and provide the resources needed to find the safest solution. The goal is not to rush his return, but to ensure that when Ferrari comes back he can do so with maximum guarantees.
On top of that, this issue comes amid other physical concerns involving Gaspar Campos and Hugo Guillamón, increasing the club’s worry at a sensitive moment. For now, as Sport concludes, everything hinges on the new evaluations in Barcelona and whether Ferrari can continue with the current plan or needs to go back under the knife.
