The young footballer was injured in early November 2020.

The career path of the 18-year-old striker of Catalan Barcelona Anssumane Fati went up rapidly in the summer of 2020, however, the meniscus gap, which was received by the player in the match of the ninth round of the Spanish La Liga against Seville Betis (5: 2), put the player out of action for a long time.

According to preliminary data, the Spanish striker was supposed to complete the injury recovery process at the end of April, and then start preparing the matches of the European Championship 2020 for his national team..

However, according to the Spanish edition Marca, the initially chosen conservative method of treatment with the suture of the meniscus, instead of removing it, which was done by the Spanish doctor Cugat, did not give the desired result..

The timing of the return of the football player to full-time work in training was shifted to the beginning of the second part of the Champions League campaign, but after the first lessons Fati again felt discomfort in his knee, after which his doctor had to resort to a full-fledged operation.

It was expected that the player will be able to fully return to the workflow at the beginning of May, but even then Fati was in for a failure..

Now, the Spaniard's injured knee will be operated on by some of the world's best specialists in this field - the Portuguese doctor Jose Carlos Noronha, who previously dealt with similar problems with Pepe, Radamel Falcao, Hulk, Angel Di Maria, Victor Bahia, Costinha and Arjen Robben.

The surgery was originally scheduled for tomorrow, May 6, but the doctor has reportedly not yet had time to examine the Barcelona player..

From this it is obvious that Fati will definitely not take part in the four matches of his club that remain until the end of the season, will miss the European Championship 2020, and will not be able to take part in the Olympic Games in Tokyo..
