Sergi Roberto goes under the knife tomorrow in Finland

Sergi Roberto will be operated on this Thursday in Finland by the prestigious surgeon Lasse Lempainen of the rectus femoris of the right leg. An injury that has dragged on for more than a year and that has prevented him from playing regularly in the last twelve months, to the point of suffering four relapses during his recovery. This dramatic situation has forced the new medical managers to assume a drastic decision: start from scratch. And that ‘reset’ has had as the first step to intervene directly in the rectus femoris to put an end to this accumulation of nonsense.

The doctor chosen to operate on Sergi Roberto is Finnish surgeon Lasse Lempainen, a gifted student of an old acquaintance at the club as Sakari Orava. Lempainen has already operated twice recently on Ousmane Dembélé for detachments of the biceps femoris tendon.

Now, it will be Sergi Roberto who passes by the clinic that the Finnish specialist has in Turku. The blaugrana, who traveled to Finland today, He will be intervened early this Thursday and later the club will issue a medical report. In principle, everything indicates that the recovery time is between three to four months.

That means that, in the best of cases, the one in Reus would not be available until April, so we could say that the season is practically over for him. A particularly serious situation, especially if we take into account that his contractual future is still up in the air: he has not yet signed his renewal and his contract ends on June 30.
