The recovery process begins for Marc Bernal, who faces the challenging job of rehabilitating after rupturing the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. Two days after his operation, he was finally able to leave the Barcelona Hospital facilities

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Officially, Marc Bernal has been discharged, so this Wednesday morning he was able to leave the Hospital de Barcelona, where he had been admitted for the past two days. It is worth noting that the Berga native underwent surgery on Monday, September 9th, for a surgical procedure to correct the anterior cruciate ligament and external meniscus tear in his left knee, a procedure carried out by Dr. Joan Carles Monllau.

The talented midfielder left the Hospital de Barcelona accompanied by his parents. Likewise, as is common in these cases, he was seen struggling to properly support the affected leg (left), so he had to leave the medical center using crutches.

Before boarding the vehicle that would take him away from the Barcelona hospital facilities, Marc Bernal had the opportunity to briefly thank the support he has received during these challenging times. "Thank you very much to everyone," said the La Masia product.

It is worth highlighting that this was the midfielder's first statement after his surgery. Previously, he had only communicated through his social media expressing an emotional message: "One day less to enjoy what I love the most. Thank you for your support," he wrote on his Instagram account (@marcbernal_).

Marc Bernal's absence, a tough blow for FC Barcelona

As a result, Marc Bernal will have to face an extensive recovery process that will keep him out of the fields for no less than 12 months, so his return to the Azulgrana institution is not expected until the start of the 2025/26 season. A pity, considering that the player was just having his first experience in professional football at the young age of 17 and was already earning a place in the dynamics of the Barcelona team under the guidance of Hansi Flick, as one of the starting midfielders in the German coach's scheme, to which he was a perfect fit.

The Berga native positioned himself as a very technical midfielder, ideal for orchestrating plays in the midfield with great ease. Additionally, possessing a stellar physical prowess, he was also ideal for defensive duties, offering a range of necessary options in the Culé midfield.
