Capoue - Sprained ankle (4 weeks)

[Wick3d]

You realise high sprain ankles can take up to 6 months to recover? It all depends on it being a stable or unstable injury.

 

[Roscilous]

He will be out for months, and probably 3-4 months before he is fully fit again. I did the same and took 6 months to come back, before doing the other one straight after. Im just unlucky.

Forgive my ignorance, but surely a sprain is by its nature a fundamentally 'better' injury (better for want of a better word) to have than a bone break or ligament tears?

Could a sprain keep him out until March?

Yes, a high sprain can keep you out for a long period but it depends on the nature of the sprain. The ankle area is a bit iffy seeing as it is a pain in the arse to fix if it becomes unstable.

Capoue update

Posted by Tottenham Hotspur on 2 September 2013 - 14:30PM
Etienne Capoue has this morning (Monday) undergone an MR scan which has revealed the midfielder suffered an ankle sprain against Arsenal on Sunday.

The recent signing from Toulouse was injured after 72 minutes at the Emirates Stadium and was immediately taken to hospital to consult with a Foot and Ankle specialist. Early indications suggest the France international will be unavailable for a period of four weeks.

[holmesy]

do you know what, i have been waiting for this information all day, was not concerned about transfers!
4 weeks is great news in my opinion - dodged a bullet!

although i must say he is a pussy - screaming like a baby and had oxygen cos of a sprain?!!??!

 

[philll]

Thank fuck for that! Assuming it's an absolutely honest report.

 

[Real_madyidd]

Spains can be sore for much longer than that, will take some courage to stick his ankle into a 50/50. Good news though, thought it was a fracture!

 

[EastLondonYid]

Thats better than a new signing..​

 

[tototoner]

out 4 weeks, statement just released

Two of those first four weeks we are off. Then we play Norwich and Cardiff, where Sandro can more than fill in.

Great news.

You didn't experience Santi falling on your leg, so don't know how you can understand the pain he felt?

 

[Wardy]

Good to hear. Lucky in the sense that the internationals will cover some of this

 

[EastLondonYid]

Thank fuck for that! Assuming it's an absolutely honest report.

Its on our official page

 

[Kendall]

Very pleased. Actually looks our best signing so far by a distance.

 

[Harry Barber]

Only a month. Best news of the day.

 

[Third Kit '87]

Best news we'll have all day!! Delighted for the lad- was sure he broken his ankle
