Although initial MRI scans suggested that Timotej Brkić had been rather fortunate in his misfortune and would only be sidelined for around four months due to a knee injury, it became clear after the surgery that this would not be the case. The young midfielder from Mura suffered a much more severe injury than initially anticipated by the doctors, so it is highly unlikely that he will play football again this year. If he does, it should not be expected that Timotej Brkić will return to the pitch significantly before the end of 2024.
“The recovery is expected to take between six and nine months. If everything goes as planned, I might be able to return to the field towards the end of the autumn part of the next season, otherwise, I will start the winter preparations with all my strength,” explained 18-year-old Timotej Brkić to EkipoSN, who established himself as an important member of the senior team of the club from Murska Sobota in the current season.
The former prospect of Maribor, who recently introduced himself to the readers of our website (you can read the interview here), added regarding his severe injury: “I have come to terms with what happened to me. I have no choice. These things happen, injuries are part of sports. I believe I will come back even stronger. Right now, I am completely focused on rehabilitation. I have to be smart, patient, I must not rush. I know what awaits me, I am prepared for it. It won’t be easy, but I am determined to play again at the desired level.“
