Madrid, Spain – E be like say Real Madrid no fit catch break this season. Their young star, Franco Mastantuono, don waka enter injury wahala again as dem don confirm say him dey suffer from pubalgia. Wetin be pubalgia? Na serious matter wey dey pain players for di lower belly area and fit keep dem for sideline for weeks, or even months. E no dey light o! (No be small wahala wey dem dey carry head for ground).
Di official communication wey Madrid release talk say: “After di medical tests wey dem run on our player Franco Mastantuono by di club medical team, we don diagnose am with pubalgia. Pending evolution.” As di matter stand, nobody sabi how long e go take to recover, and dat one get everybody for club dey look like wetin go happen next.
Mastantuono, wey dem sign from River Plate for around €63 million last summer, no fit join him padi dem train last week for Valdebebas ahead of di big match against Liverpool. Instead, e dey do some special gym work to make sure say di injury no gree worse. For those wey no sabi, pubalgia na serious business for athletes, and if dem no take am seriously, e fit drag like drama for months (No be joke at all).
Since di boy land for Madrid, e don dey shine like diamond for Xabi Alonso e plans, making proper impact during di matches. E don rack up 12 official appearances this season, nine of dem as starter, but na only one goal and one assist him don collect so far (No be as e suppose dey hot, but we dey watch am!).
Pinky swear, Xabi don put plenty hope on dis guy, and injury like dis fit scatter plans for di next matches wey dey come. With clash against Liverpool dey face dem next, e go hard for dem to fill dat gap, especially with all di other injuries wey dey affect dem squad too.
Omo, this season don dey choke for Real Madrid, as dem no fit afford any more losses, especially for Champions League. As di fans dey cross dem fingers for Mastantuono make quick recovery, di gaffer dey look for una who go fit step up and carry di team go forward.
E still dey unclear if him go fit play di next match or even di upcoming FIFA friendlies for di Argentina national team, wey go happen mid-November. Na serious matter for di boy, because e don miss di last international break too. Di football world dey watch as dis drama unfold, but for now, make we just dey hope say our boy go fit recover sharp-sharp.
