Darmstadt's star striker Braydon Manu has defied expectations, making a triumphant return after a challenging three-month break due to an ankle injury.
Despite looming uncertainties about a potential operation and a lack of progress in conventional therapy, Manu displayed his resilience as he stepped back onto the pitch for individual training on Thursday.
As detailed by the Lilienblog, the 26-year-old's dedication to his recovery journey has not only reignited hope among fans but has also underscored the efficacy of conventional therapeutic methods.
Manu, who had been sidelined by the injury, is now pushing to fully reintegrate himself into the team in the near future, according to his own statement.
The uncertainty surrounding the need for surgery had cast a shadow over Manu's return, making this comeback all the more inspiring. His swift progress in individual training hints at the effectiveness of the therapies employed, challenging the initial doubts surrounding the conventional approach.
Manu has made two appearances in the league this season.
