TURIN – Rupture of the cruciate ligament of the left kneewith consequent operation for its reconstruction: generally i recovery timesor for an injury like this they go to 5 to 7 months. Something, looking at Perr Schuurs, it doesn’t come back. The defender was injured in the home match against Inter, and following a clash with Calhanoglu, on 21 October. On the 27th of the same month he underwent surgery, carried out in Bologna by the professor Zaffagnini. According to the indicated timetable, he should have been perfectly healed between the end of April and the end of May. To remain very, very large at the end of the current month. However, it became known that the center back won’t even be ready for the start of training camp scheduled for mid-July. He will be able to return to the group in late August, if not in September: if that were the case, it would be October before he finds himself in good condition. So twelve months after the injury. Whatever happens, it is clear that Schuurs is taking much longer than necessary to become fully available again. A not insignificant problem, for one Turin which he risks seeing leave Good morningand who intends to consider the former Ajax player the ideal technical leader to overcome the possible – if not probable – exit of Alessandro.

Turin, Schuurs becomes a case
The company has been aware for some time that not everything is proceeding as expected. Allowing the player to return to the Netherlands for treatment, so as to have friends and family close to him at a difficult moment in his career, was undoubtedly a common sense choice. The relationship with the rehabilitation center to which Schuurs, obviously with the approval of the club and the supervision of the Granata medical staff, was however not satisfactory. Neither in relation to the costs – very high – nor in relation to the recovery from the injury itself. So much so that, after a series of rather heated discussions with the Dutch interlocutors, the Granata club decided to let the player return to base. Who then resumed work at the Isokinetic physiotherapy center in Turin. The hope, at the state of the art, is that once Schuurs has regained his form he will not encounter relapses. This is also why the club is determined to proceed with caution: at this point, two weeks more or less will not make the difference, while it will be decisive to return the defender in such conditions as not to incur a new problem with his left knee.

Schuurs grenade column
Schuurs’ contribution to the Granata team is too important, regardless of the market evolution on Buongiorno. Arriving in Turin in the summer of 2022, Perr forged ahead quickly becoming a point of reference for Juric’s rearguard. Who has always had words of praise for him, both in terms of his attitude in training and looking at his performance on the pitch. “Schuurs wants to improve, you can see it every day in Philadelphia – the Croatian declared among many other expressed concepts -. For me, working with him is fantastic, he makes himself available with generosity and has the right humility. He is already strong, but it will become even stronger”. And, in fact, the technical and tactical progression that preceded the injury was unstoppable. So much so that last summer there were many clubs, in Italy as in England, who knocked on Cairo to take over the player’s registration.

Taurus, revolution in defense
The Schuurs issue, the possible departure of Buongiorno, the probable loan of Sazonov, the expiring contracts of Djidji and Rodriguez to arrive at the return of Lovato to Salernitana: Torino’s defense – in which the only “certainty” is at the moment the wild card Tameze – is undergoing a revolution. A revolution which, considering the change of coach with the move from Juric to Vanoli and the consequent tactical reset, will have to be accomplished quickly. It will be during the retirement phase that Vanoli will be able to lay the foundations for the coming season, more or less solid based on the timing of the market that Vagnati will carry forward.
