SOCCER: ALBERTO PALOSCHI SUFFERS TEAR TO FEMURAL BICEP

Parma player Alberto Paloschi has suffered a tear to his femoral bicep; it is thought recovery time will be brief. The Serie A striker injured himself last Friday in an Under 21-match. He underwent a skeletal development test, which revealed that he has grown some 5 cm in a short space of time, thus changing the biomechanical load on his muscles. Medical staff therefore devised a personalized treatment plan which aims to redress the balance.
