MADRID, 20 Jul. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Spanish midfielder for Real Sociedad David Silva has an injury to the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee and a serious prognosis, pending further tests with a specialist, according to his club.
“David Silva had to leave yesterday’s training session due to discomfort in his left knee. In the imaging tests carried out, an anterior cruciate ligament injury was observed. At this time, he is pending evaluation by a specialist next week,” says the Real’s statement.
In the absence of these tests, the feared cruciate tear, an injury that has a recovery of about six months, worries the Basque team and the Canarian footballer. Silva arrived at Anoeta in the summer of 2020 and last May he renewed for a fourth season.
The Spanish international became a key footballer for the good game of Imanol Alguacil’s team, but as soon as the preseason started, the Basque coach may have lost the Arguineguín’s vision of the game for a large part of the course. A Silva who, at 37, still thought about enjoying football at his highest level.
