River Plate had a rough start in the Professional League and coach Marcelo Gallardo is trying to find a way to improve in the table. In that sense, the strategist received good news for the final stretch of the season: the Paraguayan Robert Rojas continues to improve himself, after the fracture of the tibia and fibula that he suffered two and a half months ago.
On April 7, the defender was injured in the away match against Alianza Lima, for the Copa Libertadores, and had to undergo an operation. After the surgical intervention, the “Sicario” began the recovery process and is close to returning to activity.
Through Twitter, River Plate shared a postcard from Robert Rojas with the training diver, where he appears carrying out the pertinent activities regarding his total recovery. In the photograph, the defender looks with a big smile on his face, unleashing the joy of the club’s fans.
“Counting the days”, was the text that accompanied the post and that the footballer himself replied on his social networks. If he complies with the specialists’ recommendation, the brave player will return to the courts soon.
