Absen 14 Bulan, Ilkay Gundogan Takut Kariernya Tamat

  • Ilkay Gundogan menikmati musim terbaiknya di Manchester City pada kampanye terkini. 
  • Padahal sebelumnya ia mengalami masalah punggung misterius di Borussia Dortmund. 
  • Ilkay Gundogan bahkan harus absen selama 14 bulan. 

SKOR.id - Ilkay Gundogan menceritakan bagaimana kariernya nyaris tamat ketika mendapat masalah punggung saat berusia 23 tahun.

Gelandang berkebangsaan Jerman ini tengah menjalani musim terbaiknya bersama Manchester City, yang kini unggul 14 poin di puncak klasemen Liga Inggris.

Tapi siapa sangka, Ilkay Gundogan sempat mengalami masalah serius yang hampir membuat kariernya berakhir diri.

Ilkay Gundogan pernah mengalami cedera punggung serius, ketika ia masih membela Borussia Dortmund. Hal itu terjadi di awal musim 2013-3014, yang membuatnya absen hingga setahun lebih.

 

Gundogan saat itu menolak menjalani operasi lebih cepat, karena dokter bedah yang menanganinya pertama menyarankan pemain 30 tahun itu memasang screw besar untuk memulihkan kondisinya.

Tapi ia mencari alternatif lain untuk tetap bisa aktif bermain sepakbola, meski akhirnya harus absen 14 bulan di Dortmund. Ilkay Gundogan pun akhirnya kembali tampil untuk Dortmund pada Oktober 2014. 

"Saya absen selama 14 bulan, bagian terburuknya adalah tidak seorang pun tahu cedera yang saya alami," aku Gundogan kepada Guardian.

"Saya menemui dokter bedah dan ia ingin memasang screw besar pada punggung saya yang tidak akan memungkinkan bagi saya bermain sepak bola di level itu. Saya takut tidak bisa bermain lagi dan saya benar-benar bersyukur menemukan [dokter bedah] yang tepat.

"Tentu saja saya masih harus mengadapi masalah ini, tapi saya merasa cukup baik."

Ilkay Gundogan menjadi rekrutan pertama Pep Guardiola di Manchester City pada 2016. Ia pernah mengalami cedera anterior cruciate ligament pada Desember 2016, tapi akhirnya kembali setelah menepi selama sembilan bulan. 

Di bawah komando pelatih berpaspor Spanyol, Gundogan mengeluarkan potensi terbaiknya. Di musim 2020-2021, minimnya ketersediaan penyerang justru membantu Ilkay Gundogan tampil impresif, dengan mengemas 13 gol sejauh ini.

Ilkay Gundogan juga memberikan dua assist dan dinobatkan sebagai Pemain Terbaik Liga Inggris edisi Januari.
