He has damaged his cruciate ligaments We are still not sure how badly yet. Im considering suicide TLF get well soon (im really worried so dont take the pi$$...you know who u are)
Just saw this on the BBC website. That has to royally suck. I was looking forward to some great things from Juninho. Any idea on how long he might be out.
Unfortunate turn of events... Juninho seems to have horrible fortune with injury... the timing is always the worst. Always he recovers but he certainly ins't the most reliable, albeit it's really no fault of his own. Remember pre-WC 1998, he was dealt something similar and his first spell with Boro and Madrid were marred.
your right..except it was his second spell...but anyway.. it looks as if christmas at the least... im really gutted everything looked so promasing until this but we still have good players and hopefully when he comes back he can give us something extra after christmas to push for europe
'Serious' injury for Juninho Middlesbrough were dealt a massive blow yesterday when World Cup winner Juninho was ruled out of the start of the season with a cruciate ligament injury. The 29-year-old Brazilian damaged his left knee in Saturday's friendly with Italian side Modena in Mantova... The Telegraph
Juninho unlikely to play before Christmas Middlesbrough fear Juninho could miss a large part of the season after suffering a cruciate ligament injury... Ananova
we should all wait until the club officailly anounce it before we say anything. Because websites just make thier own stories up about things like this....
Well here ya go... Middlesbrough have confirmed that Juninho has torn his cruciate knee ligament and will be out for the rest of the year...The Guardian
