Georginio Wijnaldum has admitted he was "Very emotional and sad" in the aftermath of the injury that has stalled his Roma career before it had the chance to really get going.
The Dutchman only spent one campaign at Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain before quickly leaving the French capital and joining Roma on a season-long loan deal that includes an option to buy. Wijnaldum made his debut for Jose Mourinho's side last month, coming in for the final 12 minutes of their 1-0 win away at Salernitana.
Just days later, the midfielder suffered a fractured tibia in training that ensured he would face a five-month spell on the sidelines as part of his recovery. Wijnaldum opted against undergoing surgery after consulting a specialist in Switzerland.
