Pogba, the specialist’s opinion: ‘It was difficult not to operate’

Doctor Zanon, a month and a half after the lesion of the lateral meniscus, Pogba is operated on. There is a feeling that he has lost precious time …

“I don’t know in detail the case and the type of injury, but generally when the meniscus is involved
lateral is difficult to think
not to intervene surgically. It is clear that, if after such a long period the operation then came, the so-called therapies did not have the desired effect ”.

Allegri said we will see Pogba again in January, at least with Juve. And the World Cup?

“It is at risk. A meniscectomy takes 45 to 60 days only
to get back to running, let alone to play. And Pogba is not exactly short, his recovery could also take longer ”.

Juve is waiting for him in 2023, therefore. Could it already be at the top?

“Hard to say, why
the adaptation of the knee to being without that piece of meniscus must also be checked. We must be careful, annoying chondrolysis can also emerge … “.
