Surgery successful
Savona (knee) has had a successful surgery and will start recovery in the coming weeks, according to his club.
Analysis: Savona was deemed to be set for surgery after Monday's presser, and it has already taken place, with the defender appearing to have come through the surgery with no issues. He will now start a decent road of recovey that will take a few months, leaving a return this season a major doubt. He will hope to see the field again, but is unlikely to push too hard and have another derailment in his young career, still only 22.
Set for surgery
Savona (knee) is set to receive surgery on Tuesday and is questionable to return this season, according to manager Vitor Pereira, per Sarah Clapson of the Nottingham Post. "I think tomorrow (Tuesday) is the surgery, I really don't know (if he'll play again this season). After the surgery, they (the medical staff) will say something and will inform us, but it is difficult."
Analysis: Savona has been out for around a month as he deals with a knee injury and is now set to miss further time, receiving surgery that could end his season. That said, it will be dependent on his training after the matter, with the medical team deciding when he can go again. They have already been without him for some time, so this isn't a major loss, although it is a huge gap in the defender's development
