Fluminense midfielder Martinelli knee injury

Overview

Fluminense midfielder Martinelli underwent successful arthroscopy on his left knee to repair a lateral meniscus injury. The injury was sustained during a Libertadores semifinal match against Palmeiras on October 14. Following the procedure, he was initially expected to be sidelined for at least six weeks, potentially missing the remainder of the season.

Martinelli has since progressed to a new stage of rehabilitation, beginning running exercises on an anti-gravity treadmill at the CT Carlos Castilho training center. While the initial recovery timeline was estimated at six weeks, his progress has provided encouragement to the club medical department. The technical staff faces a decision regarding whether to expedite his return or prioritize long-term health based on the team's league standing.
