Report details

AS reported that the typical recovery period for this type of injury is up to three months, and that Casadó reduced it to less than two. The outlet also reported that the medical staff had to hold him back because he wanted to return for the Osasuna match.

Casadó, who is on loan from Barcelona at Depor, said he was happy to be playing again and eager to succeed at a club where he has not yet had a run of games. He said he considers the injury closed and does not see any risk of a relapse.
