Nehuén Pérez received several messages of support after undergoing surgery for a serious injury. Most of them came from Porto players such as William Gomes, Pablo Rosario, Pepê, Borja Sainz, and Samu, but another that stood out was from Pedro Gonçalves, star of Sporting.
Through his official Instagram account, the Argentine central defender shared a photo showing that he has already undergone surgery and is about to start a long recovery journey. One of the figures who commented on the post was Pedro Gonçalves, wishing him a "speedy recovery".
It's worth remembering that Pote - who has everything agreed to renew his contract with the lions - and Neuhén Peréz are former teammates. Currently representing Sporting and Porto, respectively, both players shared the locker room at Famalicão, in the 2019/20 season, when the Minho team returned to the top division of Portuguese football.
The ‘number 18’ of the blue and whites suffered a total rupture of the Achilles tendon, an injury that frightens footballers and athletes of various disciplines. The player underwent successful surgery and is facing a long break for recovery.
This season, wearing the Sporting jersey, Pedro Gonçalves - valued at 30 million euros - has already played six games: five for the Portugal League and another for the Supercup. During the 513 minutes he was used, the ‘number 8’ of the lions has already scored four goals and three assists.
