Buffon: Out for 2-3 months you say?

By: Matthew | October 10th, 2008

Well that’s no good.

According to reliable sources this time, Juventus official website, “an ultrasound scan confirmed the diagnosis of a second-degree lesion”

Italy’s doctors: “it will take four weeks to heal. As soon as possible during these four weeks the player will begin physiotherapy coupled with a personal training regime, and will be able to gradually get back training with the team once he has fully recovered. He will be able to play official matches a few weeks after this.”

So we are looking at a return sometime in December assuming the healing process goes according to schedule. Now that’s he out for an extended period of time and I have no hopes to see him play soon, I’d rather see him take as much time as he needs to get back to 100%. If that means a January return, I’m cool with that. Hell, I’m even cool with February.

Honestly though, I was looking forward to the CL clash between Real Madrid and Juve. Casillas vs Buffon is always fun to watch.

On another note, I know if I was told to chill out for a month+ and happened to have a sexy wife i’d be taking full advantage of my opportunities.

Here’s to a speedy recovery and gettin it on.

    Ya matthew you’re right on here. I’d rather have him come back in February knowing his injury would be 100% behind him.
