Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernández has confirmed that his recent groin surgery was successful. The Argentine international revealed that he had been enduring pain for approximately six months before deciding to undergo the procedure. Fernández explained that he managed the discomfort with injections and medications, but the pain intensified a few weeks ago, necessitating surgical intervention.
Details of Fernández’s Surgery
Fernández’s decision to have surgery came after persistent issues that affected his performance and well-being. “My operation was successful, I needed to get this surgery since I’ve been dragging the pain for about six months,” Fernández stated. He also mentioned that the pain had become unbearable recently, leading to the surgical option.
Impact on Chelsea’s Season
The surgery has significant implications for Chelsea, as Fernández will miss the remainder of the season. This development is a setback for the club, considering Fernández’s role in the midfield and his contributions to the team’s dynamics. His absence will likely be felt in the upcoming fixtures, where Chelsea would have benefited from his skills and presence on the field.
Commitment to Chelsea
Despite the current challenges, Fernández’s commitment to Chelsea remains strong. Earlier reports from his agent, Pérez, emphasized that Fernández is dedicated to his current club, dismissing any transfer rumours. This commitment suggests that Fernández is focused on his recovery and returning to full fitness to contribute to Chelsea’s future successes.
