El ciclista esloveno Pogacar sufre graves lesiones tras fracturarse la clavícula y una vértebra

Slovenian cyclist Tadej Pogacar suffered multiple serious injuries in a crash during La Vuelta, according to Levante-emv. He broke his collarbone and damaged a vertebra in his neck. Pogacar also has a concussion. Doctors say he needs surgery, but he must recover from the head injury first.
Pogacar's fall caused a collarbone fracture, a broken vertebra, and a concussion, according to Europa Press. The injuries happened during the Spanish cycling race La Vuelta. His team, UAE Team Emirates-XRG, confirmed the extent of the damage after medical scans.
Doctors will operate on Pogacar's collarbone and spine fractures, but not right away, La Opinión de Zamora reported. The concussion requires recovery time first. Medical teams must monitor his brain injury before proceeding with any surgical procedures. This delay protects his long-term health.
The timeline for Pogacar's return remains unclear. Multiple injuries of this severity typically sideline cyclists for months. His team has not announced any target date for his comeback. The concussion adds complexity to recovery beyond the bone injuries.
