Arrascaeta discharged from hospital after collarbone surgery | OneFootball

See what the next steps are in Arrascaeta’s treatment

Flamengo drew 1-1 with Estudiantes de La Plata (ARG) last Wednesday (29), in the third round of the Libertadores. In the match, Arrascaeta fractured his collarbone and had to undergo surgery. However, this Friday (01), the midfielder was discharged from the hospital.

In short, Flamengo released a new medical update on Arrascaeta’s condition. After confirming that the surgical procedure was successful, the Rubro-Negro side said the midfielder was discharged on Friday morning (01).

In addition, Flamengo informed what the next steps will be for Arrascaeta in his quest for a full recovery. According to the club, the Uruguayan will begin his treatment schedule at Ninho do Urubu starting Monday (04).

What was Flamengo’s statement?

“After a successful surgical procedure to repair a fracture in his right collarbone, the midfielder was discharged from the hospital on Friday morning (1st).

The first few days of recovery will be spent resting at home. Starting Monday (4), the player will continue his treatment schedule at the George Helal Training Center.”

What happened to Arrascaeta?

In short, right at the beginning of the match, defensive midfielder Piovi brought down Arrascaeta, who landed on his shoulder at Estadio Jorge Luis Hirschi. As a result, Leonardo Jardim substituted the number 10, who was taken to the hospital for imaging exams.

That confirmed a fracture in Arrascaeta’s right collarbone. It is worth noting that Flamengo chose to have the number 10 undergo surgery instead of starting conservative treatment because the recovery time should be shorter.

What now?

Without Arrascaeta, Flamengo now turns its attention to the Brazilian Championship. That is because on Sunday (03), the Rubro-Negro side faces Vasco at the Maracanã. In short, the derby kicks off at 4:00 PM (Brasília time), valid for the 14th round of the Brasileirão.
