In the middle of pre-season, Robinio Vaz injured his right knee during training with the Louve club. Medical examinations revealed a first degree injury to the collateral ligament. A troublesome injury for someone who has already started to prove himself in the Italian capital since his arrival (14 matches played, 1 goal and 2 assists in all competitions during his first months).

However, the news is reassuring. According to our information, the injury is ultimately less serious than initially feared by the medical staff. The former Marseillais should observe a period of unavailability estimated at around two weeks. This lenient diagnosis will allow him not to miss too much of the summer preparation. A relief for the player, who will be keen to quickly get back on the pitch to continue to gain playing time and convince his coach, Gian Piero Gasperini, at the dawn of this new season.
