the fear of seeing Yamal suffer the same injury as Neymar?

Should we fear the worst for Lamine Yamal? This weekend, the Barça phenomenon caused a certain thrill in the ranks of the Catalans. Affected during the match against Leganes, he will have to spend a short time in the infirmary as he suffers from a grade 1 injury to the anterior peroneal intertribal ligament. Furthermore, while he could have stayed out following Yvan Neyou’s tackle, he wanted to return to the green rectangle, causing a contusion to the ankle. Enough to necessarily worry about his state of health.

“A bit like what could have happened to Neymar”

The Catalan daily newspaper Sport went to interview a specialist in ankle sprains and injuries, the podiatrist and osteopath Alejandro Bayo. And the latter wants to be particularly careful, especially since this could lead, in the event of a recurrence, to an injury similar to what Neymar may have suffered in his career: “It is the same injury. The interosseous tibioperoneus is the syndesmosis . I think it will take four weeks rather than three because he is a repeat offender and I think this ligament was healed, but weakened. Four weeks is almost enough. YOU can see how the ankle digs in and there the internal ligament could also have suffered, although the statement does not specify This will be crucial The explanation for the sprain is that it was plated. and swept. But its type of foot and its structure mean that this area can be more exposed. This ankle must heal very well and, despite this, it can be prone to this type of injury. Neymar. This type of player who takes a lot of hits and which, due to his leg type, can be an area of ​​weakness,” he explained. Nothing very reassuring.
