David Neres is already looking ahead, despite his season suffering a sudden setback. The Napoli winger underwent surgery on his left ankle a few hours ago: a necessary procedure after the injury that forced him out of action, limiting his use and impact at a crucial time of the year.
The Brazilian footballer himself announced the outcome of the operation on social media. A photo from his hospital bed, his left leg bandaged and immobilized, and a message that immediately reassured fans and the community: "Everything went well! Thanks to my wife, who wasn't just my wife, but also my doctor and my physiotherapist," Neres wrote, drawing a smile.
The former Benfica player will now face an estimated two-month layoff. This is a significant loss for Napoli, who are losing a key attacking option, especially due to his injuries, creativity, and unpredictability. The Napoli medical staff will monitor his recovery step by step, aiming to give Calzona (or the incumbent coach) a Neres fit for the final stage of the season.
For now, the only news that matters is that the operation was successful. The rest will be a race against time, between rehabilitation and the desire to return to the spotlight.
