Ronaldo’s recovery from severing a knee tendon is ahead of schedule and the striking star is walking unaided.
There were fears that El Fenomeno’s career was over when he severed a tendon in his knee in a game against Livorno in February.
However, after a successful operation on February 13 and 41 days of physiotherapy, things are looking more positive and Ronnie is now walking without the aid of crutches and has an almost complete range of motion.
“I am really happy with how things are going and because I don’t feel any pain now,” the 31-year-old declared to journalists.
Physiotherapist Bruno Mazziotti is also delighted with the speed of the former Real Madrid man’s recovery.
“We are working slowly but surely to get the best results possible. Ronaldo is increasing in confidence and taking a more independent approach,” he revealed. “In the coming weeks we will start to work with weights.”
Ronnie is set to meet Gerard Saillant – the head of the surgical team that performed the procedure – on April 3, but he will attend training at Milanetto to see his teammates this week
