Why Lo Celso traveled to Finland to undergo surgery on injury that ruled him out of Qatar 2022

After the accomplished and inevitable fact, John LoCelso started on the road to recovery: he hopes to be on the pitch next year and that’s why he went Finlandwhere it was operated on by someone who is considered an eminence of sports medicine: lasse lempainenwhich he recently had in his operating room Sergius Robert Y Ousmane Dembele.

The surgery was performed in Mehiläinen Neo Sports Hospital, a private center located in the city of Turku, Finland, where Lempainen specializes in knee, ankle, muscle and tendon injuries. He performs about 350 surgeries a year.

Lempainen dealt with the detachment of the hamstring tendon in his right leg and after the operation Rosario’s midfielder gave him the Argentine’s shirt with number 20 which he will no longer use at the World Cup in Qatar: that number now belongs to Alexis MacAllister.

As expected, the Villarreal player will be off the pitch for at least the next three months, so the Rosario player is only expected to return to the pitch in March. The rehabilitation will be carried out entirely in Spain.

Initially, Lo Celso tried to avoid surgery to be in the World Cup and then have surgery. There was also a kind of compensation for leading the Yellow Submarine: not receiving a salary until discharged.

However, Lo Celso’s plan had no accomplices, allies, or anyone to support him in his crusade. He surmised what his fate was and entered the operating room. He will give the surgeon the shirt that he won’t wear and will follow the World Cup from the screen. “I will support like another Argentine from anywhere,” she acknowledged on his Instagram account.
