Gerard Deulofeu, who underwent several surgeries after an injury in 2022 but was unable to return to the green fields due to complications caused by a cartilage infection, continues to train actively every day at the club's training center despite the termination of his contract with Udinese.
Idman.Biz reports that the 30-year-old striker said in a statement to foreign media that he does not lose hope, even though doctors do not guarantee that his injury will heal.
"This may be the most difficult recovery in history. But if anyone can do it, it will be me," said the Spanish footballer.
Gerard Deulofeu has been supported not only by his family but also by his club. Udinese did not immediately terminate the player's contract and believed in his recovery, but this January, after waiting approximately 800 days, the Italian club finally terminated the contract. The footballer has not lost faith for more than a thousand days and continues to train.
For information, let us add that Deulofeu was once one of Barcelona's most promising young players, he played 12 games in the main team and managed to score once.
