Enzo Díaz undergoes surgery for inguinal hernia, find out more | OneFootball

Enzo Díaz underwent a herniorrhaphy last Wednesday in Argentina, a surgical procedure to correct an inguinal hernia on the left side, where the player had been experiencing pain in recent weeks and even missed a São Paulo match for this reason.

The surgical procedure was performed this week, taking advantage of the break for the FIFA international window, since Enzo chose to have the operation in Argentina. São Paulo will only return to the field on November 20, in a week, against Corinthians at the Neo Química Arena, but the left-back is practically ruled out for the rest of the season.

Enzo Díaz will follow a recovery protocol, taking a period of rest before reporting back to the Barra Funda training center to begin physiotherapy.

Enzo Díaz had been complaining of hip pain in recent games, missed the match against Grêmio in Porto Alegre, but quickly returned to be available for the decisive stretch of the season, in which São Paulo is still fighting for a spot in the Libertadores.

The left-back is a guaranteed starter for the team led by Hernán Crespo, who has suffered yet another absence for the final rounds of the Brazilian Championship. With Wendell, the direct substitute for the position, also recovering from injury, young Patryck Lanza is the only natural option for the role.
