Alexia Putellas will be out for between 10 and 12 months

Operated on a torn anterior cruciate ligament of the left knee suffered before the EURO

BARCELONA, 12 Jul. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The Spanish international player for FC Barcelona Alexia Putellas will be out for between 10 and 12 months and could miss the entire 2022/23 season after undergoing surgery this Tuesday for a torn anterior cruciate ligament in her left knee suffered in training with the selection prior to the European Championship in England.

"According to the club's medical services, this Tuesday morning the player Alexia Putellas underwent a successful operation at the Barcelona Hospital for the rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament in her left knee. The estimated time off is between 10 and 12 months", announced the Blaugrana club.

With these forecasts, the Blaugrana captain would say goodbye to the season that will start in no time, since the fastest recovery would leave her ready for the month of May 2023, and what least points to the fact that she would not be discharged until the following summer, since with the campaign over.

It should be remembered that the Barça captain was injured on July 5 in a training session for the Spanish team prior to the European Championship that is being played in England.

Alexia stayed in the training camp to support her teammates in the qualifiers and in the opening match for Jorge Vilda's team against Finland, which ended with a comeback and a 4-1 victory for the Spanish team.
