Athletes in Italy sidelined by muscle injuries
Several Italian athletes have been sidelined by muscle injuries. In basketball, Juvi Cremona player Facundo Corvalán suffered a biceps femoris lesion during a preseason friendly against Dolomiti Energia Trentino. Corvalán was forced to leave the court after only 45 seconds of play. He has begun a recovery protocol, and medical staff will re-evaluate him in approximately ten days to determine the extent of the injury and his return timeline.
In football, Vis Pesaro player Francesco Dell’Aquila has been diagnosed with a muscle-tendon injury to his right biceps femoris. The injury requires immediate rehabilitation, including targeted therapies and controlled strengthening. The club has not yet specified the exact duration of his absence, but the technical staff will need to adjust tactical options for upcoming Serie C Group B matches.
