It has been a difficult season for Alexsandro (26), who has now been forced to undergo surgery on a quadriceps injury. The defender had just made his break into the Brazil squad and was part of the Selecao in September.
Upon his return to Lille OSC, coach Bruno Genesio alluded to the risk involved in playing Alexsandro, who had participated in a game at high altitude in South America just days earlier. Despite the concerns, the decision was made to play him, but unfortunately, Alexsandro sustained an injury.
The injury occurred on 14th September, and since then, the player has yet to feature in any matches. The Brazilian returned to training briefly last week but then suffered a setback, delaying his recovery.
Last week, Genesio mentioned that the club would soon provide an update on Alexsandro’s condition. On Friday, Lille officially confirmed that their centre-back will be undergoing surgery for the quadriceps injury.
The surgery is scheduled to take place in the coming days, according to LOSC. However, no specific timeline for his return has been provided; this information will only be available after the procedure and initial recovery phase.
