Fabio Tavares has received a mix of updates after consulting with an ankle specialist, who determined that the Coventry City forward will not require surgery to mend his ligament injury. Despite this positive news, the 23-year-old is set to undergo a prolonged period of recovery, sidelining him for the last three matches of the Sky Blues season and necessitating extensive rehabilitation over the summer.
The injury occurred during extra time in a thrilling FA Cup semi-final clash at Wembley where Tavares played a key role in sparking a remarkable comeback against Manchester United. Manager Mark Robins provided insight into the situation, stating, “He will be out for a significant period. Hopefully, he will return to training at some point during the pre-season. It’s a tough setback for him and for us as well.”
When asked about Tavares’ reaction to the news, considering his recent return to full fitness in January after a lengthy Achilles injury layoff, Robins mentioned, “He received a positive assessment from a surgical consultation last Thursday, indicating that surgery is not needed. This should bring him some comfort as he embarks on the recovery process over the coming months. He will be working diligently throughout the summer with the goal of returning stronger. The situation could have been much worse.”
Expressing his sympathies for Tavares, Robins remarked, “He was understandably devastated to be forced off during the match, especially given his impactful presence. Unfortunately, injuries are part and parcel of the game, and hopefully, he has dealt with his fair share.”
Regarding the statuses of defenders Joel Latibeaudiere (calf) and Luis Binks (Achilles), Robins explained in a press conference before the upcoming match against Blackburn Rovers, “There have been minimal changes in their conditions. As we assess their fitness levels in training today, we recognize that several players are in similar situations due to the demanding schedule and intense game time they have endured. With three crucial matches remaining, our focus is on recovery and fielding the most capable players ready to perform at their peak.”
Callum O’Hare missed the recent fixture against Hull due to fatigue, while Victor Torp was sidelined with a stomach strain. Robins addressed their availability for the upcoming game, stating, “Both players are facing comparable situations, and I will evaluate their conditions today through discussions with them. We will determine the lineup based on player availability and finalize our strategy before departing for Lancashire.”
