News on Luis Garcias injury

AnfieldCop · January 15, 2006

A lad on RAWK called, Spanish Red, posted the following:

This is the same guy who told us that Luis were flying over for a medical. He seems to be a close friend of Luis.

It was a surprise for me not seeing him playing against Luton, but also on the bench

So i called to ask him about.

He told me that he had been playing with pain on his knee the last 2 or 3 months. But he wanted to help the team to catch ManU on Premier and get the World Club Cup on Japan.
He could play with that pain, thx to doctors and his massages and medicines injected. (dont know if it´s the correct expression).

But on the match against Bolton he couldn´t continue with his pain.
"Im seat just now and i can feel the damage on my knee. It´s impossible for me to play" said to me.
"Probably i have to pass a surgical operation, and that means 4-5 weeks out. But i think is the best way to be fit for the matches against Benfica. Some teammates advices to me that i have to go to operation, some others are advicing me, not to. I don´t know at this moment what is the best way.
Next Monday I will go to Barcelona to get a second opinion about this injury, and then i will decide what to do"

Today, Sunday 15th, i couldn´t talk with him so i called his wife. And she told me that Luis couldnt wait till monday with this pain on his knee, so he travelled to Barcelona last Friday. Just at this moment they are making medical tests on his knee to know how important is the injury. Yesterday (saturday) they make him some tests and it seems that it isn´t necessary to go to the operating room; but they will make more tests today.

I will try to inform u, with more news when i got them.
(And obviously i hope the news will be good news)
