Carolina Marin has officially communicated that he will not finally play the Huelva World Cup 2021. The evolution of her left knee injury is not positive and the player has made the decision not to put her health at risk and to give priority to the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, as already commented previously.
The World Cup, which will be played in the native Huelva of Carolina Marín, will begin next Sunday, December 12, but the recovery process of the player’s cruciate ligament and menisci has not been completed. Even so, and despite his loss, Marín will be in Huelva during the competition week and will carry out different planned events.
“It was going to be too risky. In the end it has only been 6 months“Carolina assures Sports Santander regarding the time elapsed since her injury.”The first three months we have had to go very slowly through the internal meniscus. From there (…) it has been when little by little we have been advancing“.
For his part, his coach, Fernando Rivas, recognizes the influence of the meniscus injury. “The decision is motivated by a small delay in the recovery process“He commented.” From now on, what we have to do is regain mobility on the track, add uncertainty to training, recover tactical concepts that we have worked on in the past and develop the new ones that are already on the computer ready for when we are available to compete. “, explains Fernando Rivas about the next steps in recovery.
On her return, Carolina Marín confesses that there is no exact date. “There is no estimated day. We are going to see it according to the sensations that I have in my knee. By February or March I could compete again“, he assures.
