Real Betis player Isco Alarcon continues to shorten the recovery period from his fibula injury. The midfielder is already in the final stretch and on Monday he resumed ball training after six months since he suffered the injury.
Betis midfielder Isco Alarcon is beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel of his long-standing fibula injury and on Monday he resumed ball training at the Betis training complex six months after picking up the injury at Las Palmas on 16th May.
Betis have reported the progress of the player from Arroyo de la Miel with two images with the ball and a message of encouragement to the Malaga international: “Your smile is ours. Let’s go Isco”, the club said.
Isco had already announced last week that he could return to the pitch in a month’s time after half a year out with a fibula injury which, he said, “was for two months, three months, in the end it’s going to be six and it’s been longer” than expected.
Following his injury in Las Palmas, Isco underwent surgery, although the lack of consolidation in the callus in the operated area forced him to undergo another operation on 4th September.
Isco’s progress is a relief for Chilean coach Manuel Pellegrini, who, in addition to the Andalusian midfielder, is without Portuguese midfielder William Carvalho and, for a shorter period, Marc Roca, who will undergo stem cell treatment on his ankle, and American Johnny Cardoso, who is suffering from a muscle ailment.
