Tottenham midfielder James Maddison has successfully undergone ACL reconstruction surgery after suffering a ruptured ACL in his right knee during a recent pre-season match.

An ACL tear is particularly serious for footballers, as it compromises knee stability, vital for quick changes of direction and acceleration on the pitch. Recovery can be lengthy, typically requiring at least six months before players can begin training again.

Jayson Tatum’s recent Achilles injury highlights how vulnerable the tendon is for basketball players especially in today’s game, where speed and physicality are at an all-time high.

An Achilles tendon rupture is a serious injury that can sideline a player for months and Tatum may miss the entire 2025–2026 season. Without surgery, this injury can lead to long-term weakness and make returning to sport nearly impossible.

Proper stretching and strengthening are key to reducing the risk!

FC Barcelona’s Robert Lewandowski is set to miss a crucial stretch as the team approaches the UEFA Champions League semi-finals.

The semitendinosus muscle plays a key role in knee flexion and hip extension. The injury likely reflects a Grade 1 to 2 strain, suggesting mild to moderate fiber damage.

Do you think he will recover in time for the final push in Europe?

Tottenham Hotspur defender Radu Drăgușin has been ruled out for the rest of the season after suffering an ACL injury during a mid-air challenge , where he landed awkwardly on his foot.

While ACL injuries are common in football, they are still considered major knee injuries due to the significant impact they have on an athlete’s recovery and performance. These injuries often occur from sudden movements or added pressure on the knee joint, causing the ligament to tear or rupture.
