Lucas Leiva sent a message thanking Lazio fans after he underwent knee surgery, which should keep him out for a month. “I took this moment to fix something that was no longer working.”

The Brazilian had been struggling with a recurring inflammation in his right knee for some time and took the opportunity of the lockdown to have the operation.

It cleaned up fragments around the meniscus and cartilage, so he is expected to be out for a month.

“In life we must always think of moving forward, but at times a strategic pause helps you reflect and sort things out,” wrote Leiva on his Instagram page.

“I took this moment to fix something that was no longer working for me. Now I begin the second phase, which consists of getting in physical shape so I can return with maximum strength.

“Peace of mind helps the body react better in the rehabilitation process. I will be back soon. Thank you for the messages of support.”

It’s entirely possible that by the time Italian football does resume, Lucas Leiva will be fully recovered, as the provisional date floated for fixtures is May 20.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Na vida nós temos sempre que pensar em avançar mas as vezes uma parada estratégica te ajuda a refletir ou colocar as coisas em ordem para depois repartir. Tive esse momento de parada para reparar algo que não estava mais me ajudando. Agora começo a segunda fase que é dar condição para o corpo poder repartir com força máximo. A paz de espírito vai ajudar que o corpo responda da melhor maneira no processo de reabilitação. Daqui a pouco já estou de volta. Muito obrigado pelas mensagens de apoio. Lucas Leiva. Nella vita dobbiamo sempre pensare a andare avanti, ma a volte una fermata strategica ti aiuta a riflettere e mettere le cose aposto. Ho avuto questo momento di fermata per riparare qualcosa che non mi aiutava piu'. Ora inizio la seconda fase che consiste nel dare la condizione corporea per tornare con la massima forza. La pace mentale aiuterà il corpo a reagire meglio nel processo di riabilitazione. Torno tra un po'. Grazie mille per i messaggi di supporto. Lucas Leiva.
