Nicolò Zaniolo may have missed the whole season, even participating in the European. According to the “Gazzetta dello Sport”, this would be the biggest danger for the talent of Rome, after the rupture of the cruciate ligament in the left knee.
According to Professor Christian Fink, who yesterday operated the attacking midfielder of the Yellows, the time for an optimal recovery and avoidance of risks would be longer than six months, which requires an injury of this kind.
The well-known Austrian doctor recommends nine months of rehabilitation before returning to the green fields, to avoid further troubles, which would endanger the career of the Italian footballer.
However, the return in mid-June would also mean the loss of the European Championship, as without achieving physical form with Roma (he would not play any matches), Mancini could not gather him in the national team.
