Asencio may go under the knife for a right tibia stress fracture
Real Madrid is set to discuss a potential surgery with medical staff and the player; if it happens, recovery would be around two months.
The Real Madrid centre-back Asencio, 23, could end up going under the knife to deal with a stress fracture in his right tibia that he has been carrying since last season and which is still causing issues.
Conservative treatments haven’t been working, so over the next few days Real Madrid’s medical staff, the coaching team and the player will meet to decide what to do next. Surgery is one of the options on the table.
If they go ahead, recovery would take roughly two months. The player wants to end a situation that prevents him from being at 100%.
