Parma Confirm Hand Fractures for Zion Suzuki as Surgery Considered

A decision on surgery could set a recovery timeline of about three months.

Overview

  • A club bulletin says the 23-year-old suffered displaced fractures of the third finger and the scaphoid in his left hand.
  • The injury occurred late in the 2-2 draw with AC Milan when Alexis Saelemaekers rounded him and stepped on his hand.
  • If he undergoes an operation, he is expected to target a return between February and March.
  • Parma must decide whether to elevate backup Edoardo Corvi or pursue a free-agent goalkeeper during Suzuki’s absence.
  • Suzuki has been Parma’s near ever-present since 2024, so the setback could rule him out of matches against Inter, Napoli, and Juventus.
