Mikel Merino credita à esposa seu apoio durante recuperação de lesão

O meio-campista espanhol Mikel Merino revelou como sua esposa, grávida de oito meses, o ajudou durante a recuperação de uma fratura por estresse no pé direito.

Merino, de 30 anos, natural de Pamplona, ignorou a dor no pé no dia 25 de janeiro e continuou jogando. Ele passou por uma cirurgia no início de fevereiro para tratar uma fratura por estresse em um osso do pé, uma lesão rara no esporte.

O jogador do Arsenal participou de minutos em todas as partidas da Espanha, incluindo os amistosos pré-torneio e os dois primeiros jogos da Copa do Mundo de 2026. O técnico Luis de la Fuente o incentivou durante toda a recuperação.

Merino creditou à sua esposa sua presença no torneio. "Sem minha esposa, eu não estaria aqui. Tem sido incrível vê-la, grávida de oito meses, me ajudando a subir as escadas", disse ele.
