It might take Marc Cucurella three months to recover after surgery. Putty / 9 hours ago Even though the Chelsea full-back will be out for up to three months following surgery, Marc Cucurella managed to crack a smile. Following early evaluations and recommendations from foot and ankle doctors, Cucurella was substituted during Sunday's match against Everton. It was then decided that Cucurella needed surgery.

The 25-year-old full-back, who won't be back until February at the earliest, announced his operation on Instagram on Saturday, but he didn't say what kind of surgery it was. His left foot was spotted severely swollen and in a cast, as he lay on a hospital bed. Even though Cucurella was left out of Mauricio Pochettino's squad for the weekend, he still wanted to keep track of his teammates' progress in their game against Sheffield United.

Despite being too exhausted following the operation to watch the game live, Cucurella was able to obtain a feed of it, as his companion shared in a photo. Cucurella posted a photo of himself standing up on crutches in the hospital hallway along with the caption, "Time to come back stronger," on Instagram. Teammates poured out their well wishes and assurances that he would 'come back stronger' in a barrage of supportive texts. Ben Chilwell, a teammate who is also injured, commented, "Back soon, brother!" "We will be with you all the way, Marc," Chelsea's official account continued.

Mauricio Pochettino, the manager of Chelsea, has been unlucky when it comes to his full-back problems. Chilwell and James would be Pochettino's starting full-backs if his team was completely healthy, but he will be without both for some time. Before Saturday's 2-0 victory against Sheffield United, Pochettino stated, "We have a lot of injury issues and it's like building a house and some of the stuff are not there but we need to keep believing." "The roof?" Not quite there. The architects and builders of the house are nice folks. We have the greatest firm, which consists of excellent, imaginative, and well-established architects.

However, strong foundations are necessary for building anything, and they might occasionally be impacted by the conditions. It's not the company's fault if water is there when you dig a hole. an unforeseen circumstance that prevents things from moving forward as quickly as you had anticipated. Regretfully, there were far too many hits directed at us.
