Antoine Conte suffered a concussion during the warm-up in the match between Botev (Plovdiv) and Ludogorets at the “Hristo Botev” stadium. After an MRI, it turned out that the Guinean central defender Botev has a defect in the cartilage of the joint, which requires surgical intervention. On 18.03 he underwent a successful surgery in a hospital located in the capital . At the moment, Conte’s condition is good. During the African Cup of Nations, Antoine Conte also suffered an injury of this nature. Botev’s medical staff will monitor his recovery and expect him to resume training within 1 month.
Martin Sekulic is suffering from an inflamed gluteal muscle. This was found out after an MRI. The treatment requires a break of about 10 days.
