Fiorentina loses MarinPongracic due to a hamstring injury. The defender, suffering from injuries in midfield, was stopped by the Viola club during the match against Inter and will not be able to participate in the next match against Atalanta. Vincenzo Vanoli's team therefore finds itself having to manage the absence of a key player in a moment of particular difficulty.
According to the official press release released by ACF Fiorentina, Pongracic underwent a clinical-instrumental assessment this morning, immediately after the injury suffered during the championship match against Inter. The investigations highlighted a myofascial lesion to the long head of the biceps femoris of the right thigh. The player has already started the planned therapeutic-rehabilitation process and will be re-evaluated in the coming weeks.
The club has specified that Pongracic's break will be for a few weeks. The current forecast indicates that the defender will be available again after the championship break, missing the matches against Sassuolo and Juventus. Fiorentina, who have suffered a series of injuries, will therefore have to reorganize their defense for the next matches.
The statement, published on Fiorentina's official website, underlines that the player has already undertaken the recovery process and that the club will continue to monitor his evolution. No precise return date was given, but coach Vanoli said the team will do everything possible to minimize the impact of his absence.
With the absence of Pongracic, Fiorentina will have to rely on other defensive resources to face the next matches. The club remains optimistic about the player's recovery and will continue to provide updates on his health. The next step will be to re-evaluate his recovery in the weeks to come, with the hope of having the defender available again at the end of the championship break.
