Carles Puyol to undergo knee surgery – Football News
Spanish centre-back and the Barcelona captain, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Carles-Puyol-c8331, will go through yet another knee surgery after the club doctors decided that it is needed if the player wants to continue playing football.
Reports in the Spanish media have highlighted that the Catalan captain has a cyst in his right knee and he must go through surgery in order to remove it.
Puyol has been captaining Barcelona for the past eight years and he is most definitely one of their best defenders. With the captain’s armband around his arm, he has managed to win each and every trophy that he ever played from.
He has won all the six titles which http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 can play for and has won every trophy in the world of club football. Moreover, he has also won each and every international trophy with the Spanish national team.
It simply sums up how great this legendary defender is and why Barcelona still need him at the back.
Moreover, with the Catalans already having several problems in their defence, they definitely need a player like Carles Puyol to back them up. Last season, one of the main reasons why the Spanish champions failed to stop Bayern
Munich was because Puyol was benched.
The Catalan captain was going through a knee injury, so http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Javier-Mascherano-c18071 were given the task to stop Bayern Munich. In the second leg, Mascherano was also out injured and it was the young Marc Bartra who had to
take care of the situation but could not handle it well due to his inexperience.
This season, however, Barcelona are expected to cash in on one centre back at least. They have already made a bid on the Borussia Dortmund star, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Thiago-Silva-c34903 is also keen on
signing for the Spanish giants.
In any case, Carles Puyol is currently a must have for the Catalan giants since they need some assurance at the back and there is no doubt that Gerard Pique and Javier Mascherano are simply not getting the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 done.
