Frequent injuries are complicating Arjen Robben’s stellar football career. The last from the endless series of injuries was a problem with his femoral muscle. The problem happened during the warm-up before the game of the Champions League against Juventus. A last-moment change had to be done in the lineup and Robben’s national Royston Drenthe substituted him. While the Spanish giant was desperately and vainly fighting for points (Juventus won 2-0), Robben stood in front of another series of doctor visits.
Real’s doctors original reports were forecasting a six-week training break. The unhappy Dutch national player going through a difficult period decided to contact his countryman Tschen La Ling and asked him for help. The owner of AS Trenčín having excellent contacts in the medical field immediately arranged for medical examinations at a specialized clinic. The speedy winger of ‘Merenges’ returned to the training center Valdebebas after a successful express treatment and from Tuesday (November 18) is available to the coach.
Several important football magazines have noticed Robben’s unexpectedly quick return to the training process. The most widely read Spanish daily newspapers Marca and AS, the web pages goal.com, soccernet.espn.com, theoffside.com, or the web page of the Czech TV Nova have brought the interview with La Ling made by the Dutch magazine Revu. The owner of AS Trenčín expressed his belief in the interview that Robben will be able to take full game load within a week in spite of the prognoses of a six-week pause. He also mentioned some nutrition-related problems of the player that may be the antecedents of his frequent injuries. That is why he prepared a special nutrition program for him. “He is no longer going to be a ‘crystal-made boy’,” Tschen La Ling said about his countryman.
