Manchester United defender Lisandro Martinez has shared a positive update following surgery on the knee injury he sustained against Crystal Palace at the start of February.
The Argentina international had to be stretchered off in our meeting with the Eagles and the club issued a statement on the defender’s situation in the days following.
On a day where Amad confirmed that he had suffered an ankle injury that will rule him out for a number of weeks, Martinez shared that the surgery on his knee had been successful and he was now starting his road to recovery.
“Today, after going through several stormy days where I allowed myself to feel and accept my sadness, helplessness, insecurities, fears, and a deep emotional imbalance, I am reconnecting with my essence and my values, which help me see things from a kinder and more positive perspective,” the 27-year-old posted on his social channels.
Hoy, después de haber transitado varios días tormentosos en donde me permiti sentir y aceptar mi tristeza, la impotencia, inseguridades, miedos y un gran desequilibrio emocional, vuelvo a conectar con mi esencia y mis valores que me ayudan a ver las cosas desde un lugar más… pic.twitter.com/mi44uio5p2

“I feel immense gratitude for the incredible work and support of Man Utd, Argentina, my family, friends, team-mates, and everyone who took the time to send me a message of encouragement.
“The surgery went perfectly!! Now it’s time to give it my all, with heart and soul, in the rehabilitation process.”
There is no exact timescale for the defender’s return but Martinez has overcome injuries in the past and we know he will come back stronger.
Before United’s 2-1 FA Cup fourth-round win over Leicester, Ruben Amorim’s players wore special shirts during the warm-up with the message: “Mucha fuerza, Licha.” This translates to “Much strength, Licha!”
You have the full support of everyone at the club during your rehabilitation, Lisandro.
