The young striker did not even celebrate the goal and immediately fell to the ground.
He left the field on his own two feet, but the concern was palpable from the first moment. Initial examinations indicate a rupture of the hamstring of the Barcelona star’s left leg.
And what worries all of Spain is the World Cup. The Spaniards will play their first match on June 15 against the Cape Verde Islands, and the severity of the injury will determine Yamal’s participation in the WC.
The alarm level was raised after doctor Pedro Luis Ripoll explained the potential scope of the problem on the show El Larguero.
“This injury has a 30 percent recurrence rate, so we have to be very careful. We have to be extremely careful and respect the recovery timeline,” he said.
The estimated recovery time is worrisome: “At least four to six weeks.”
But the problem is no longer just the recovery time, but the fact that even after recovery, the fear will still exist.
Young Yamal (18) could be at the big event, but the doctor doubts it.
In any case, coaches want healthy, fit players for the game. It is very difficult to call him, although I think he will eventually be included in the national team.
The recurrence rate is 30 percent, and if the injury returns, it loses the player for the World Cup,” said the specialist.
The situation is serious and alarming, and the doctor offers a key piece of advice in these cases: “Extreme caution.”
