The former
Villarreal player has now shed light on his injury nightmare in an interview
with Spanish newspaper Marca.
Arsenal
midfielder Santi Cazorla has spoken on the injury nightmare that is threatening
his career with the Spanish star claiming his doctor’s prognosis indicated he
may never walk, let alone kick a football, again.
Cazorla, whose story
headlines Marca with an image of his right foot which shows a skin graft, said:
“The doctor told me if I was able to walk with my kid on the garden I should be
thankful.”
The talented 32-year-old
has not played for Arsenal since October 2016, but his problems go back
further, with the 11 months leading up to that also proving difficult.
Achilles tendonitis has
been the problem, with the former Villarreal star suffering from it on two
separate occasions, with the second bout still keeping him out of action and
nearly costing him his foot due to infection.
It remains to be seen
whether Cazorla will ever be able to get back to his very best, but he is said
to be targeting a return in January.
