Fernando Reges already steps on the lawn of the Ciudad Deportiva del Sevilla and, in addition, he does it by exercising with the ball. Two months after having to undergo surgery to solve his ankle problems, the Brazilian midfielder begins to see the light at the end of the tunnel and pushes to reach the top of the preseason that will precede his fourth year with the Sevilla shirt.
Despite the fact that the first thing that was tried was a conservative treatment so that Lopetegui could count on Fernando until the end of the season, His discomfort made it impossible for him to play and his time in the operating room was mandatory. And it was normal that they tried to count on him, since during his absence Sevilla’s league balance has been two wins, seven draws and two losses, in addition to being eliminated from the Europa League against West Ham.
“I had discomfort and I played with it, but there came a time when I couldn’t move my foot, due to a cartilage problem that led to the operation. I suffered a lot from not being able to help my teammates”, Fernando admitted in the club media. Now, one of the heavyweights in the locker room and who this season assumed one of the team’s captaincy positions, presses to contribute again next season.
