Ronaldo out of action for twelve weeks
July 15, 2008
Christiano Ronaldo, the star winger from Portugal, who is currently caught in a tug-of-war between two of the biggest clubs in the world, has an operation for his ankle injury incurred during the recently concluded Euro Cup. This surgery is likely to keep him out of action for at least the coming twelve weeks.
According to Portugal Soccer team physiotherapist Antonio Gasper, Ronaldo will not be able to hit the pitch before October, thanks to the operation he had to undergo for his right ankle. He added that the 23-year old will remain in his observation for about three weeks before doctors from Manchester United carry out further examination.
This news simply points out that C. Ronaldo will not be available to play for Manchester United in coming time. With the recent speculation on his transfer to Real Madrid, it seems difficult that the player will have the same old commitment for the club.
The possible question for the midfielder had once risen in 2006, when he and his Manchester United teammate Wayne Rooney, who is also English forward, had a so called ’scuffle’ during the World Cup encounter in Germany. He told a Spanish daily Marca then that he considered leaving United and joining Real Madrid.
Leaving the question of this unsuccessful transfer, ‘Twinkle toes’, as the winger is called due to his ingenious dribbling skills, seems to be fully optimistic regarding his rehabilitation. The two time PFA Players’ Player of the Year award winner has never failed impressing his audience, and even with his injury, he’s doing a great job.
