Giovanni Leoni ACL Recovery Timeline Explained

Anfield Index expert Simon Brundish has detailed the timeline for Liverpool defender Giovanni Leoni's ACL recovery, noting the injury is 'quite a bad version' and predicting a return to training around late spring.

Brundish explained that while standard rehabilitation typically allows players to return to action after nine months, full peak physical performance often requires another year. Given Leoni is a young centre-back still developing physically, the integration process will be crucial.
