Hiroki Ito Suffers Another Setback

Japanese Star Undergoes Surgery

Hiroki Ito, a defender for FC Bayern Munich, has undergone another surgery, dealing another blow to his recovery from a long-term injury.

Ito initially suffered the injury, a syndesmosis ligament tear, in his ankle during training in July 2022. He underwent surgery in August 2022 and was expected to be out for several months.

However, Ito's recovery has been hampered by complications, and he has not yet been able to return to full training. The latest surgery is a setback for Ito and for Bayern Munich, who are hoping to have him back in action soon.

Ito's Injury a Major Blow to Bayern Munich

Ito's injury is a major blow to Bayern Munich, who are already dealing with a number of other injuries to their defense. Lucas Hernandez, Noussair Mazraoui, and Benjamin Pavard have all missed significant time with injuries this season.

Ito's absence has forced Bayern Munich to play out of position at times, and it has contributed to the team's poor defensive record this season. Bayern Munich have conceded 21 goals in 15 Bundesliga matches, which is more than they conceded in the entire 2021/22 season.

Bayern Munich are hoping that Ito will be able to return to action soon, but it is unclear when that will be. The latest surgery is a setback, and it is possible that Ito could miss the rest of the season.
