Bologna Confirm Holm Surgery and 4–6 Month Recovery
Category: Football | Breaking
Bologna have confirmed that right‑back Emil Holm will miss between four and six months after undergoing surgery on a serious injury sustained during training earlier this week.
The Injury
Club doctors revealed that Holm required immediate surgical intervention to repair ligament damage. The operation was successful, but the Swedish defender now faces a lengthy rehabilitation period before returning to full fitness.
Bologna’s Statement
In an official release, Bologna said: “Emil Holm has undergone surgery and will begin his recovery process immediately. The estimated time for his return is between four and six months.” The club expressed confidence in his recovery and thanked fans for their support.
Impact on the Team
Holm’s absence is a major blow for Bologna, who have relied on his pace and defensive solidity down the right flank. Manager Thiago Motta is expected to rotate options, with Stefan Posch and Riccardo Calafiori likely to fill the gap.
The Bigger Picture
Holm’s injury comes at a crucial stage of Bologna’s Serie A campaign, as they push for a top‑half finish. His recovery timeline means he could return late in the season, potentially in time for the final fixtures if rehabilitation goes smoothly.
