Tianjin Jinmen Tigers midfielder Wang Qiuming suffered a serious knee injury while playing for his country and is expected to miss the next three Chinese Super League matches as well as two World Cup qualifiers in November, according to Tianjin Today Sports reporter Gu Ying.
It is reported that Wang Qiuming received a detailed examination in the hospital, and the results showed that his left knee collateral ligament was damaged. On his way back to Tianjin from Dalian, he had to use a brace to immobilize his left leg to prevent further deterioration of the injury.
Upon arrival in Tianjin, Wang Qiuming underwent another professional examination. The medical team of Tianjin Jinmen Tigers will be fully responsible for his treatment and rehabilitation in conjunction with the results of his first check-up after the injury.
Gu Ying pointed out that for sports trauma, the most pressing need in the recovery process is undoubtedly time. As a result, Wang Qiuming's absence is almost a foregone conclusion, both for the remaining three rounds of the Tianjin Jinmen Tigers' Chinese Super League campaign and for the national team's upcoming 36-team World Cup qualifying tournament in Asia in November, which will undoubtedly be a regret for him personally as well as for the team as a whole.
Gu Ying revealed that Tianjin Jinmen Tigers have made a brand new plan at the end of the season. Given that the Chinese Super League season ends early, there is still about half a month to go, which means that the players will have at least four and a half months of rest from the end of the season to the start of the 2024 season. Considering that starting the "winter break" too early or having too long a break may affect the players' physical fitness and preparation for the new season, Tianjin Jinmen Tigers may organize a period of intensive training for the players after a short break.
