Sergi Roberto, sunk: “I am going through difficult times, physically and mentally”

Sergi Roberto has decided to stop hiding behind a medical statement and this time He wanted to reflect his state of mind through a sincere and laconic message on his Instagram account, thus opening his heart to the fan and acknowledging that he was in an extreme situation, after suffering his umpteenth muscle rupture and relapse in the rectus femoris of the right leg, leaving in part in evidence the club's medical services, who assured that only he had “tendon discomfort”.

“When things go wrong, you have to get up and do everything you can to change it”, begins his message that of Reus, to add next: “I am going through difficult times, physically and mentally, but I am convinced that the good will come, with work and positivity as I have always done, since I want to go back to enjoying what I love the most. he likes and above all to be one hundred percent “. Finally, he ends the text by thanking the fans for “the messages of encouragement.”

Reason is not lacking when he claims his desire to be one hundred percent again. And it is that dSince he was injured on November 21 of last year, he has not raised his head. Two comebacks and two relapses, and more than four months off, with intervals of two to four games, is the balance of a season to forget, where he has lost 31 games, which will finally be 33, because he has already said goodbye to this season.

And it is that, as we anticipated in AS, Sergi Roberto will be out for a minimum of a month after suffering a new tear in the rectus femoris in his right leg last Saturday against Levante when he had barely been on the pitch for half an hour. A situation that the club wanted to hide, pointing to “tendinous discomfort”, but that the player himself has been in charge of denying, with a statement that leaves little room for doubt about the seriousness of the new injury.

Also, do not forget that, apart from injuries, this season also passed the trance of a house confinement in January after testing positive for coronavirus, to which must be added the uncertainty regarding his future: the player, who ends his contract on June 30, 2022, would like to renew for two years or more and the club only offers him one and a drop.
